Yokosuka • Ohka (Cherry Blossom - Flor de Cerezo)
Japanese Imperial Army • 1945
Suicide training
Of the total of 852 Ohkas that were built, [...] [t]he most ghoulish version was probably the Model 43, which was essentially a training form with the warhead replaced by a second cockpit, and with a landing skid so that this craft could be recovered.
One wonders what must have gone through the minds of the people who trained others to fly the Ohka.
