Mitsubishi G4M 'Betty' Bomber 2 Flexfit Hat

The Mitsubishi G4M, famously known as the 'Betty', is a name that evokes the daring and dramatic air battles of the Pacific Theater during World War II. Produced by Mitsubishi and serving as the mainstay long-range land-based bomber of the Imperial Japanese Navy, the Betty was operational from the early 1940s until the end of the war. Its design focused on range and speed, sacrificing armor and defensive armament, which led to its vulnerability but also enabled some of the longest bombing raids of the era. The G4M gained notoriety for its role in high-profile missions, including the attack on Pearl Harbor and the sinking of the HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse. Despite its weaknesses, the Betty's legacy is one of audacity and endurance, making it a fascinating subject of World War II aviation history.
