Choroszy Modelbud B20 Experimental 7-Shi Carrier 3MT10

The Mitsubishi 3MT10 was a Japanese prototype bomber-torpedo bomber from the interwar period. The prototype flight took place in 1933, but the machine did not enter serial production. The drive was provided by a single Rolls-Royce Buzzard II-MS engine with power up to 955 HP. The deck armament consisted of two 7.7 mm machine guns. The machine could also carry a load of bombs weighing up to 900 kilograms.

The Mitsubishi 3MT10 was developed for the needs of the Japanese Navy, which in the early 1930s sought to obtain a new bomber-torpedo plane to replace the Mitsubishi B1M and B2M machines. It was assumed that the new plane would operate only from the decks of Japanese carriers. The new machine was designed by Hajimo Matsuhar - Mitsubishi's chief aerospace designer. The machine used a powerful engine for those times, but it increased its own weight. It was also characterized by a mixed metal and wooden structure. Ultimately, however, it turned out to be not very successful, and what is worse - during the tests in 1934 it was a catastrophe. This determined the defeat of the Mitsubishi 3MT10. It is commonly assumed that only one prototype of this machine was created.
