Description

The shipboard bomber Comet, which was developed as a successor to the Aichi D3A, was also diverted to a night fighter by taking advantage of the maneuverability, sturdy airframe structure, and high-speed performance unique to a ship bomb. A 20mm machine gun is mounted diagonally upward in the rear windshield for the purpose of intercepting bombers at night. It is said that it was formalized in 1945 and more than 100 types 12 were remodeled, and he struggled to intercept the B-29 until the end of the war.
