During WW2 the Japanese military code meant that it was an honor to die for your country. This was why Japanese pilots or Kamikaze pilots were willing to commit suicide by a military air attack.
The use of kamikazes during World War II highlights the desperation and dwindling resources of the Japanese navy. As the war progressed, Japan faced significant losses and a shortage of capable pilots and aircraft, leading to the adoption of suicide tactics as a last resort. This reflects a shift from conventional naval warfare to a more extreme approach, indicating that the Japanese navy was struggling to maintain its effectiveness against overwhelming Allied forces. Ultimately, the reliance on kamikazes underscores the dire situation of Japan's military capabilities by the war's later stages.

Kamikazes were considered suicide pilots.
Japanese suicide pilots who crashed their planes into American navy ships in a desperate attempt to win the war. Kamikaze means "Divine Wind" in Japanese.
Suicide missions in aviation by Japanese pilots in World War 2 were deliberately flying their aircraft into a ship or another aircraft. The Japanese believed this was a high sign of bravery and loyalty to their country.
No, however some Japanese pilots that were shot down or damaged tried to crash their aircraft into something important.
During WWII, the IJN (Imperial Japanese Navy) expended approximately 2,500 Kamikazes; the IJA (Imperial Japanese Army) expended approximately 1,500 pilots.
Well young grasshopper. The Kamikazes were just pilots that flew into things, so yes they did have uniforms.
They would fly their planes directly into ships, other planes, etc. They basically commit suicide for the glory of their own country. The kamikazes, much like modern day terrorist, believe it brings honor to the family if one is willing to make the sacrifice. Also, the planes were only filled with enough fuel for a one way trip, so the pilots couldn't second guess their decision.
