Watch on YouTube

Description

The Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka was the most dangerous WWII kamikaze aircraft ever deployed by Imperial Japan.

Known by the Allies as the "Baka Bomb," this rocket-powered human-guided missile was a weapon of pure desperation during the final stages of the Pacific War.

In this video, we explore the terrifying technical details of the Yokosuka Ohka, a suicide aircraft designed for one-way missions against American warships. From its rocket-engine propulsion reaching speeds of 900 km/h to its massive 1,200 kg warhead, the Ohka was a lethal ancestor to the modern guided missile.
