'Fitting' was the British overall plan by Lieutenant General Sir Philip Christison’s Indian XV Corps of Lieutenant General Sir Oliver Leese’s Allied Land Forces South-East Asia command for operations by its British, Indian and West African formations against Lieutenant General Tadashi Hanaya’s 55^th Division on the Mayu peninsula of the Arakan western coastal region of Japanese-occupied Burma (November 1944).

This basic plan was then developed into 'Romulus' (ii) and 'Talon' against the 55^th Division, which was a formation of Lieutenant General Shozo Sakurai’s 28^th Army.
