Blossoms from the Sky
True stories from the Japanese pilots who volunteered to fly an experimental rocket-powered aircraft on a one-way mission to save their nation from looming defeat. The Japanese called it the OHKA (cheery blossom), but to the American sailors and fighter pilots it was known as the BAKA BOMB.
Discover the untold challenges faced by naval aircraft engineers as they raced to create the "Yokosuka MXY-7 Marudai," a new secret weapon that promised to sink a battleship with a single blow.
Follow the young pilots as they make their individual decisions to volunteer for the mysterious training program.
Meet the bomber crews who carried these human-guided, anti-ship missiles towards the US fleet near Okinawa.
Discover the courageous US Navy and Marine Corps fighter pilots who saved thousands of lives by throwing themselves between the devastating flying bombs and the ships of US Naval Task Force 58.
With over 200 photos, maps, and illustrations the reader will learn about the Ohka "Baka Bomb" and the Betty Bombers
that ferried these "flying torpedoes" into battle.
