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.
