Yokosuka R2Y Keiun

The Yokosuka R2Y Keiun “Cirrus Cloud” was a prototype reconnaissance aircraft built in Japan late in World War II.

Commissioned for the Imperial Japanese Navy the R2Y used coupled engines driving a single propeller and also featured a tricycle undercarriage.

Completed in April 1945, the prototype made a short flight on 8 May, but was destroyed in a US air raid only a few days later ending development.
