This Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber from the 505th group was damaged by its own propeller in the raid on Yokohama (Japan) – due to engine failure, the propeller fell off and hit the fuselage.
On three engines, the Boeing B-29 Superfortress reached Iwo Jima, where it lost control and rammed the tail of another B-29 bomber when landing. The collision resulted in a damaged nose and a destroyed air gun turret.
Location: Iwo Jima, Japan
Date: May 1945
