Best Answer

The Japanese suicide planes were flown in the hopes of discouraging the Allies . In World War II the term was used for a Japanese suicide air force composed of fliers who crashed their bomb-laden planes into their targets, usually ships. The kamikaze was first used extensively at Leyte Gulf and was especially active at Okinawa. Kamikaze means "Divine Wind" .
