Japan did not produce the B-17 Flying Fortress, commonly known as the "Betty Bomber," as this aircraft was developed and used by the United States during World War II. The term "Betty" typically refers to the Japanese Mitsubishi G4M bomber, which was named "Betty" by Allied forces. Approximately 2,000 units of the Mitsubishi G4M were built during the war.

No. There was no need to use the Superfortress against Germany, the older bombers were doing the job just fine. Only the B29 Superfortress had the range to reach Japan, so it was only used against Japan.

What were the shorten-term causes of the battle of Iwo Jima?

In the summer of 1944 the US captured the Mariana Islands, and built several huge airfields on these islands. From these the US 20th Air Force began bombing Japan, using the B-29 long range bomber. About halfway from the Marianas to Japan was Iwo Jima. The Japanese had an airfield on Iwo, from which fighter planes rose to attack the American bombers going to and from Japan. The Japanese on Iwo could radio Japan and warn them that an attack was coming. It was a long round trip for bombers based in the Marianas to go to and return from Japan. Planes damaged over Japan had little choice but to crash in the vast Pacific, and their crews were seldom rescued. So, to eliminate the Japanese fighters based on Iwo, to end the warnings of American raids on Japan from Iwo, and to provide an emergency landing strip for damaged bombers returning from Japan, were the short range goals. After Iwo was taken US fighter planes were based there, and escorted the US bombers on the raids to Japan, to protect the bombers from Japanese fighter planes over Japan.
