Introduction
陸上航空基地より発進、敵艦船への対艦攻撃及び敵飛行場等への対地攻撃などを行った海軍の主力陸上攻撃機「一式陸攻」、その性能向上型です。機体の一部を再設計改修、さらに機体上部の旋回機銃と機体側面機銃を強化、性能は限定的ではありましたが機上電探も搭載しました。
This is the improved-capability model of the Navy's main land-based attack aircraft the "Type 1 Land-based Attack Aircraft", which deployed from land air bases and carried out anti-ship attacks on enemy ships, anti-ground attacks on enemy airfields and such. Portions of the airframe were redesigned, as well as the addition of a rotating machine gun on the top of the airframe and the enhancement of the lateral machine guns, and even though its capabilities were limited, a plane-mounted radar was also installed.

Trivia
A variant of the Type 1 Bomber, the Model 22A was an improvement all around with 2 new 20mm cannons, enlarged fuel tanks for even more range, adding doors to the bomb bay giving it the ability to carry even heavier torpedoes and a new air radar, the Type 3 Ku-Mk.6. It replaced the Model 11 by 1944 and continued to be built until the end of the war.
