Mitsubishi G4M 'Betty' Stainless Steel Tumbler

The Mitsubishi G4M, affectionately nicknamed 'Betty' by Allied forces, is a legendary aircraft that served as the backbone of the Imperial Japanese Navy's long-range bomber fleet during World War II. Operational from the late 1930s through the end of the war, the G4M was renowned for its impressive range and payload capacity, making it a formidable adversary in the vast expanses of the Pacific Theater. Despite its vulnerabilities to enemy fire due to minimal armor and lack of self-sealing fuel tanks, the Betty's crews were feared for their daring and precision. The G4M played pivotal roles in numerous historical engagements, including the sinking of the HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse, marking a significant, though somber, chapter in aerial warfare history. Its legacy is a testament to the bravery of its crews and the strategic shift towards long-range bombing capabilities during the war.
