On display at the Yushukan at Yasukuni Shrine. Put into production in late 1944, many in the IJN pinned their final hopes on the Ohka and the pilots of the Jinrai Butai or Thunder Gods Corps. Launched by Betty bombers, the Okha was to glide and then dive at 50° or greater, igniting its three rocket motors with a max. duration of 9.7 sec. onto to the target ship. The suspension lug can be seen ahead of the bead sight, as well as the vanes of the nose fuse to arm the 1200 kg. Type 91 explosive warhead.
