History

Lt Naoshi Kanno, the commander of Squadron 301, chose this aircraft as his personal mount. He ordered his crew-chief to paint two diagonal fuselage bands with the idea that they would attract enemy fighters to him, so that he could then destroy them. The bands were crudely applied and were the same color as the tail number. Originally, there was a large number '15' painted inside the red Hinomaru. The aircraft was photographed on Matsuyama Airfield on 10 April 1945 with the large '15' clearly visible in the Hinomaru. The silhouettes of three B-29s and two fighters represent Kanno's personal victories.
