Japanese Relics


The aim of this section is not to list every preserved Japanese relic in the world, only to show some of the major bits and pieces that are still preserved and the locations where they are preserved. The most important reason for why "bits and pieces" are of interest is that they can sometimes show more of how the aircraft really was constructed than what a complete aircraft do. Also this section will hopefully show relics from aircraft that are no longer with us. So this page will only list parts that I have photos of and not the preserved parts that I know to exist in other places. If you can add something please include a photo!
