There is no paralell in warfare, to such courage and determination in the face of danger, over so long a period. Such devotion, should never be forgotten.

Had another check. Think its a Nakajima Ki-115 Tsurugi "Sabre" some references quote 'Sword'. Designed for suicide attacks, fitted with a jettisonable undercarriage.
