Designed to meet an Imperial Japanese Navy requirement for a land-based bomber to replace the G3M, the G4M was first flown on October 23rd, 1939. Built for high speed and long range, the G4M was well-armed but insufficiently armored. It lacked self-sealing fuel tanks, which made it extremely vulnerable and apt to catch fire when hit (earning it the nicknames "flying Zippo" and "flying cigar"). Armament included a mix of cannons and machine guns, an internal bomb load or anti-ship torpedo. The G4M was active through the end of the war, when it was used to carry and launch the Ohka kamikaze rocket aircraft. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
