I share with you this full report about the Japanese fighter jet Mitsubishi J8M, an effort to combat the growing advance of Allied bombers over Japan. Through the link below you will find a lot of information, photos, some rare and never seen by me before, details and in addition, diagrams and views. All this you can find by visiting the link below: aviacaoemfloripa.blogspot.com.br/2011/02/j8m-espada-jato-japonesa.htmlBest Regards!

Reengineered copy of the German "comet" the wheels completely detached upon take off and it very quickly exhausted it's fuel, coasted back to earth and belly skid for a landing. It was not a Jet aircraft but rather it was a rocket plane. Extremely futuristic at the time but way ahead of its time and rediculously ineffective. More Comets were destroyed through accidents and mishaps than combat.
