Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka “Baka Bomb” (multiple)

I photographed these Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka (Cherry Blossom) examples displayed at the Smithsonian, Quantico, NMoUSAF and the Yanks Air Museum in Chino.

Most Ohka attacks failed because American fighters intercepted the G4M2e “parent aircraft” before they could reach their targets.
