Japanese translation edit

From the first paragraph: (Japanese: 海軍航空本部, Dai-Nippon Teikoku Kaigun Koukuu Hombu)

But the Japanese here is Kaigun Koku Honbu: it is missing the 大日本帝国. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.84.6.161 (talk) 18:08, 14 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Naval Aircraft Designation System edit

"(G4M designated attack bomber (G), the fourth in the Navy's sequence, designed or produced by Mitsubishi, while G5M would be the next attack bomber in sequence, not necessarily just the next Mitsubishi type" This is *NOT* true! In fact G5M *WOULD* have meant that the next bomber was built by Mitsubishi, as the real G5 was the G5N1, built by Nakajima, while the G6M1 and the projected G7M1 were built by Mitsubishi, and the G8N1 by Nakajima again. The G9K1 was to be built by Kawanishi and the G10N1 was built by Nakajima. Source: Francillon 1979, p=553.Dirk P Broer (talk) 23:17, 6 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
