Yokosuka D4Y1 or -2 Suisei dive bomber. Code name : 'Judy'.

It seems blindingly obvious so I have a nagging suspicion that I am wrong.

Some good data here btw :

Yokosuka D4Y2 Suisei.

I'll say it is the D4Y4 since no one has been declared a winner.

ah what the hell,

I go for a SB2C Helldiver with improved engine cowl since everyone says the same

(there has to be some opposition)

It's not a -4 I think because it appears to have an in-line engine (-3 and -4 had radials)

-1 used a German engine, kinda underpowered.

I'll take a shot with D4Y1 KAI

AtmkRstr · « **Reply #12 on:** August 25, 2003, 09:41:07 PM »

and a second guess with 13-Shi prototype
