'' divine wind '' ) 1 2 Japanese, was originally used by the American translators to refer to attacks suicide carried out by pilots of a special unit belonging to the Imperial Japanese Navy against vessels of the fleet of the allies at the end of the second world war. These attacks were intended to halt the advance of the allies in the Pacific Ocean and to avoid that they reach the Japanese coast. To this end, aircraft loaded with 250 kg bombs deliberately impacted against their targets in an effort to sink or damage them so badly that could not return to the battle.
