You cannot take Egypt and conserve India. Build the IC at Australia or simply ignore the japaneses. In both cases, for a so-called KJF, USA must build fleet in West Coast, and heavy.
If you build the IC in Australia, kill the z59 trannie, or Japan can conquer it in J2
a south africa IC is also viable.(build land units first and then ships) basically that would put the UK in charge of Africa and the crown in the far east. so the us and russia won’t have to worry much about helping you there.
