Yasuoka B5Y Akasei(赤星) "Elsie" - a photo on Flickriver

Pictured: B5Y4 of the 1st Kōkūtai, 47th Sentai, assigned to the fleet carrier Eiryū(永龍).

Originally designed for the Ne-22 turbojet, the Akasei(Red Star) instead went into combat with a Tsu-14 motorjet - essentially the compressor portion of the Ne-22 (the factory producing the simpler fans was never bombed) mated to a Houomaru 25 radial engine of 2,200 horsepower. While not as fast as planned, it still had an edge over the traditionally-powered carrier fighters of the CSAAF.

Armament is 2x13mm Type 00 machine guns in the nose, with another in the dorsal turret - this required an extremely complicated interrupter mechanism and halved its rate of fire to about 450rpm. Surface ordnance capacity is a single Type 96 torpedo, or up to 3 550lb bombs(incendiary or armour-piercing).

Culprit: Yamato 2199 - Desler Attack
