The Day Kamikaze Pilots Met America’s Radar Wall — When Japan’s Suicide Attacks Failed Miserably

The Day Kamikaze Pilots Met America’s Radar Wall — When Japan’s Suicide Attacks Failed Miserably
Discover the untold story of America's radar picket destroyers and their revolutionary technology that shocked Japanese kamikaze pilots during the Battle of Okinawa in 1945. This historical documentary reveals how USS Laffey, USS Bush, and other "tin can" destroyers used advanced radar systems, Combat Information Centers (CIC), and fighter direction teams to create an electronic shield around the US fleet. Learn how Commander Frederick Becton's USS Laffey survived 22 kamikaze attacks in 80 minutes on April 16, 1945, becoming "The Ship That Would Not Die," and how these radar pickets absorbed the fury of Operation Kikusui's 1,900 kamikaze sorties. Through detailed historical accounts, discover the technological revolution that transformed naval warfare forever - from the SP height-finding radars to proximity-fused shells - and understand why Japanese pilots found themselves facing an invisible electronic wall they couldn't penetrate. This comprehensive World War 2 Pacific War documentary examines the deadly radar picket stations, the desperate tokko special attack tactics, and the brave sailors who stood between kamikazes and the invasion fleet at Okinawa, featuring rare historical details about the most intense anti-aircraft battles in naval history.
