The Kyushu J7W1 Shinden (Magnificent Lightning) was one of those beautifully shaped exotic aircraft developed in the closing days of World War Two. Developed by the Imperial Navy in response to the B-29 raids on Japan, it reached prototype stage with two machines being produced with one logging some 35 to 40 minutes flying time. A Jet powered version was on the drawing boards.
