525 vultee  3 months ago

The Mitsubishi G3M "Rikko" or allied reporting name "Nell" is a twin-engined, medium bomber or torpedo bomber produced by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. It was used by Japan during World War 2.

But because of its lack of defensive armor or self-sealing fuel tanks, it earned the nickname "flying lighter" by allied pilots.
