The D3Y Myojo, "Venus", was a stopgap variant of the Aichi D3A built by Yokosuka. It was built out of Wood with disposable landing gear, and an 800kg No.80 Standard bomb.
"The Yokosuka D3Y Myojo (??, "Venus") was a Japanese two-seat dive bomber/trainer designed and built by the Yokosuka Naval Air Technical Arsenal. Derived from the Aichi D3A, it was made nearly entirely of wood in an attempt to conserve valuable resources. Upon Japan's surrender, the project came to a halt with only a few aircraft delivered as the Navy Type 99 Bomber Trainer Myojo Model 22." - Wikipedia
