Nakajima B5N2 Kate – Historical Background:

Nakajima B5N2 Kate is a Japanese carrier-based torpedo bomber used by the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II. Its most famous operation was the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, where the B5N2 played a key role in causing heavy losses to the U.S. Pacific Fleet. This aircraft was heavily used from 1937 (with its prototype) through to the end of the war in 1945. The B5N2, a development of the original B5N version, formed the backbone of the Japanese carrier fleet’s strike force during the critical period of the Pacific War.
