The Axis Faces Problems with the Kamikaze Mission Strategy | Nazi Mega Weapons: Axis Weapon - The Kamikaze

Learn about Hitler's desperate use of Kamikaze-like tactics and the end of the war in the Pacific. Hitler's Luftwaffe adopted suicide tactics in a desperate attempt to save Berlin. But it was too little too late for the Nazis. In Japan, Ugaki's squadrons are still scoring hits but it too isn't enough to save Okinawa. This doesn't deter Ugaki who starts planning systems to launch Ohka's and Kaiten from mainland Japan. These plans come to a halt when America drops two Atomic bombs. The war is over.
