It took the US almost 2 years to fully mobilize AFTER Pearl Harbor, and that's after the lend-lease act was in place and things were geared up. It's unrealistic to think the US can mobilize in a reasonable amount of time to react to hostilities as quickly as things would ramp up in today's warfare. Thank fully in those days, radar and such was brand new nobody knew where anybody was in the Pacific until they were spotted, that slowed things down. ANd the Japanese never intended an invasion, they only wanted to eradicate our Pacific fleet.
