This unit is undoubtedly under Kaga, indicated by the two vertical red bands on its fuselage. Tail code looks like AII-105, or AII-168? However, the presence of three horizontal strips implies that the pilot was ranked hikoutaichou (飛行隊長 ), thus confirming the code to be AII-105. The unit AII-168 only had two strips (daitaichou, 大隊長 ). Furthermore, AII-105 was flown by Lt Shiga Yoshio, who led Kaga’s first wave during the Pearl Harbour attacks.
