Historical Information about the Mitsubishi G4M Betty

The Mitsubishi G4M, known by the Allied codename "Betty", was a twin-engine Japanese long-range bomber used by the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II (1941–1945). This distinctive aircraft participated in many key operations in the Pacific, including the Battle of Guadalcanal and attacks on Allied vessels. Its main advantages were its range and speed, but its lack of armor and self-sealing fuel tanks led to heavy casualties among its crews.
