That little circular door is kinda cute; hobbit like.

The left landing gear appears to be retracted or missing.  The wing must be propped up outboard of the picture.

The blister at rear of the cockpit area rather than a turret further back indicate that this is an early Type 1 Rikko - G4M1 rather than G4M2.

G4M1, it is[:)]


..............

The Japanese used actualy on the whole very few (or no) caracters on their aircraft normaly (for unit ID's), the above pick is very unushal in that their is a lot of Japanese on the side of the plane, Western Letters / Roman numerials formed the most common type of Unit ID sean.

..............

Name This AE, Will continue for at least a little while longer( I have a lot of interesting picks on hand).

Posably untill or if their is a New AE specifc Forum.
