Planes of Fame Air Museum's very rare Mitsubishi J2M-3 Raiden (Jack); c/n 3014. This aircraft was captured at the end of the war in Japan and transported to the United States for technical evaluation. After evaluation, it was abandoned and given to a park in Los Angeles for use as a playground. It was later rescued by the efforts of Edward Maloney, and brought to the Planes of Fame Museum, in Chino California. It was restored to static display condition and painted in the markings of the 302nd Kōkūtai / Yokosuka Kōkūtai. This is the only surviving Raiden in the world.

Mitsubishi J2M "Raiden"
Mitsubishi J2M Raiden
Mitsubishi J2M3 Raiden. Top Speed: 417mph/671kph. Armament: 4x Cannon. The Raiden or "Jack" as the allies called it was an interceptor of the Imperial Japanese Navy that saw action towards the end of the war. It was designed to intercept high flying bombers that were steadily creeping towards the Japanese home islands with it's high speed and powerful armament. Only a relatively small number were built and its late introduction meant that few saw combat. It was however, one of the last aircraft types to see action, with a group of J2Ms engaging and downing several US Navy Hellcats only two hours before the official surrender of Japan and the end of WW2.
