Nakajima G8N Heavy Bomber

The Nakajima G8N Renzan was a Japanese four-engine heavy-bomber project that reached prototype flight during the Second World War. It was designed for long-range naval bombing with substantial defensive armament, but development was overtaken by Japan’s deteriorating industrial and military position. It did not enter operational combat service. The G8N differed from the much more speculative G10N program and from Japan’s operational twin-engine land-based bombers. Its existence as a flying prototype does not establish production-standard performance or wartime missions. The naval requirement for long-distance bombing differed from the Army’s heavy-bomber projects. Shared Japanese nationality does not mean that the G8N and Ki91 belonged to one program or service command.
