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 :

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

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