Bol Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Yokosuka K5Y was a two-seat unequal-span biplane trainer (Allied codename: "Willow") that served in the Imperial Japanese Navy during the World War II. Due to its bright orange paint scheme (applied to all Japanese military trainers for visibility), it earned the nickname "aka-tombo", or "red dragonfly", after a type of insect common throughout Japan. The aircraft was based on the Yokosuka Type 91 Trainer, but stability problems led to a redesign by Kawanishi in 1933. It entered service in 1934 as a land-based K5Y1 with fixed tail-skid landing gear, and remained in use throughout the war.
