Some years ago, I created a World War II computer game in which I obtained interesting results by having Japan use her naval aviation (the planes that fought at Coral Sea, Midway, and elsewhere in the Pacific) to instead bombard and subjugate China.

Would the technical problems be minor or major in real life?

(My understanding is that it was not politically feasible because of interservice rivalry. From a "technical standpoint, I believe that it might be possible to use naval dive bombers for land based uses, but torpedo bombers would have to be retrofitted with high explosive bombs. Also, that torpedo bombers' low flight levels might subject them to anti-aircraft fire.)
