Atglen, PA Schiffer Publishing 1997 0764303503 / 9780764303500 Softcover Very Good
48 pages, well illustrated, pictorial wrappers, 8 by 11 inches, very good. "To the pilots and crews of the newly-formed Japanese Army Air Force (JAAF) 110th Heavy Bomber Regiment at Hamamatsu on the east coast of the Japanese home island of Honshu, the raids seemed misplaced. They were completely over water. It was the kind of attack operation that the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Force (JNAF) had been trained to do since the middle 1930s. But now that the heart of Japan was coming under attack early in 1945 by the massive American B-29 Superfortress bombers from the Marianas - stationed almost 1300 miles away on Saipan, Tinian and Guam - the JNAF was incapable of effectively striking back. " From the Wikipedia website: "The Mitsubishi Ki-67 Hiryu ("Flying Dragon"; Allied code name "Peggy) was a twin-engined medium bomber produced by Mitsubishi and used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force in World War II. Its Army designation was "Type 4 Heavy Bomber". ED_A568 ; 48 pages
