Suicide missions in aviation by Japanese pilots in World War 2 were deliberately flying their aircraft into a ship or another aircraft. The Japanese believed this was a high sign of bravery and loyalty to their country.
the only thing i can think of that comes close to what you're thinking of is kamikaze, which means divine wind. it was used most often in WWII when kamikaze pilots flew planes...hope this helps!
The name of Japanese suicide pilots were called Kamikazes. Kamikazes were "pilots who were trained to ship the Allies ships by crashing bomb-filled planes into them."
