A Kamikase bomb
The Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka was a rocket powered human-guided anti-shipping kamikaze attack plane, using as a platform, the bomber Mitsubishi G4M Betty. The following link shows a report and some photos this weapon, employed by Japan towards the end of World War II. I hope you enjoy.

Made in England, but...
Interesting report showing many types of aircraft of the Royal Air Force were captured and tested by the Luftwaffe. The following link shows a collection of photos, some well known and others rare, these aircraft with German markings. Hope you enjoy.

B-24 Assembly Ships
I share with you the following link that brings some photos of B-24 Liberators in unusual cammos. The reason for the colorful and exotic camouflage was to give USAAF bombers a visual aid to form up after takeoff before heading out on their missions. I hope you enjoy.

B-17 with exotic painting
I share with you some photos of a Boeing B-17 bomber with an exotic and unusual camouflage. Does anyone know if this plane entered service and what the function of this painting? I count on your visit.
