[iceman-kazansky]

On December 7th, 1941, 83 years ago today, the Empire of Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, a US Naval Harbour situated on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. The result of this strike was the US officially joining the ongoing world war raging in Europe.

The attack claimed the lives of 2,403 U.S. personnel, including 68 civilians and destroyed and damaged 19 U.S. Navy ships, including 8 battleships.

83 years ago on 7th of December 1941 Pearl-Harbor was attacked by Japanese forces. The planes took of the carriers with the first sun rays.

There was a much more sun that is on the artwork. But such a contrast shows the light play

Yeahh I love soft pastel!!

Akagi

After completing the attack on Pearl Harbor, Nagumo's Task Force headed home without launching a third attack, and a maintenance crew member took a break under a Zero fighter on the flight deck of their flagship, Akagi.

It must have been a very tense and exciting day.

That Zero fighter,

Is there no mass balance with arms?

A total of 326 aircraft have been fitted with these aeroplanes, and this A Ⅰ -156 (Flight Sergeant Takasuka Mitsumi) also has them, so most Zero fighters (Akagi's 150 series is a newly received aircraft) have them.
