Japan : G4M1
The long-range twin-engine Mitsubishi G4M torpedo bomber had a relatively small bomb load of 1000 kg but a long flight range of about 6000 km.
To guard against potential enemy warships, the 10-Shi specification was created, calling for a long-range, twin-engine torpedo bomber.
The power plant consisted of two engines with 1530 horsepower. The plane was the first Japanese plane in history to use retractable landing gear.
All in all, 1170 G4M1s were constructed.
