1-144 Yokosuka MXY7 Ohka Type 22 "Cherry Blossom" - by H-WERKE

Experimental version of the MXY7 the Type 22 was designed to overcome the short stand-off distance of the Type 11, although not thought to have seen operational service.

Although the Type 11 has made appearances in the form of a on some special edition  Mitsubishi G4M "Betty" by Cafe Reo, a limited edition resin kit by Artillery and as a metal kit by  Riveresco/Tin-soldier I don't recall a Type 22 previously?
