The Origins Of The Kamikaze – Special Attack Units
"Kamikaze" means "divine wind" in Japanese and has long been linked to the suicide attack squads the Japanese used during WWII. In the Pacific theater in particular, these skilled pilots were notorious for their daring flights against Allied naval forces, missions in which they were prepared to die for their nation. The cultural and military milieu of Japan is where the Kamikaze troops were born, reflecting a mix of historical precedence, military need, and nationalistic zeal. The Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War both attest to Japan's status as a strong power by the turn of the twentieth century.
Suicide Torpedoes Called Kiten
During the dark years of 1944–1945, when Japan suffered heavy casualties in the Pacific theaterand on the battlefield, the Imperial Japanese Navy created the “Kiten” suicide torpedo. Japan was in a state of disarray after suffering crushing losses at critical battles such as Midway and Leyte Gulf. As a result, the country looked for ways to undermine its enemies, especially the US Navy,which was making steady progress towards Japan's mainland. Operating the “Kiten” was like piloting a suicide plane; it was basically a modified torpedo.
