Ohka manned flying bomb preserved at the RAF Museum,
Cosford. These were rocket-powered aircraft with a large bomb
incorporated in the nose section. Range was short, so that the
manned bomb had to be carried close to their targets slung
beneath two-engined bombers. The Ohka then separated from its
“porter”, leaving the suicide pilot to guide his craft on the one-
way trip to the target. This example was captured on Okinawa,
April 1945.
