Summary

Description Over the Philippines, a formation of aircraft led by a captured Japanese Navy interceptor fighter aircraft Mitsubishi J2M Raiden (Thunderbolt, allied code name "Jack"), of the Technical Air Intelligence Unit, South West Pacific Area (SWPA) located at Clark Field, Luzon (Philippines) from the end of January 1945. The aircraft was recovered from a makeshift airstrip in Manila when American forces recaptured the city. Other aircraft in the formation are a Royal Navy Seafire (lower left) and a U.S. Navy Grumman F6F-5 Hellcat. The Mitsubishi J2M's development to full combat status was delayed by technical problems and production indecision, resulting in employment being mainly in the defence of Japan from USAAF bombing.
