Mitsubishi Ki-51
The Mitsubishi Ki-51 (Army designation "Type 99 Assault Plane"; Allied nickname "Sonia") was a light bomber/dive bomber in service with the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II. It first flew in mid-1939. Initially deployed against Chinese forces, it proved to be too slow to hold up against the fighter aircraft of the other Allied powers. However, it performed a useful ground-attack role in the China-Burma-India theater, notably from airfields too rough for many other aircraft. As the war drew to a close, the Japanese began using them in ''kamikaze'' attacks. Total production was around 2,385 units. On the day Hiroshima was destroyed by an atomic bomb, a single Ki-51 was responsible for the last Japanese sinking of a US warship, sinking with all hands. Charles Lindbergh, flying a P-38 Lightning, shot down a Ki-51. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
