i saw that question at my text book, LOL
Kamikaze (Divine Wnd) attacks were launched against allied ships off the shores of Japan and Japanese held territories during WW2. Roughly 47 ships were sank, and around 300 damaged. Although Kamikaze attacks were only about 14% effective.
Zeros
The use of Kamikaze pilots reinforces the traditional Japanese values of honor and duty above life. It reflects the Bushido code employed by the Samurai from long before.

Kamikaze means god-wind and is best translated as divine wind.
Japan
The correct answer is ‘kamikaze’. The Japanese refer to two typhoons that happened in the 1200s as kamikaze, which translates as ‘divine winds’. These kamikaze saved Japan from a Mongol invasion. Kamikaze underwent a meaning change in WWII to refer to suicide attacks by pilots.
Japan did not NEED Kamikaze Pilots and the strategy of the Kamikaze was a doomed strategy from the onset because it took more to train the pilots than they actually flew and most impacts were not severe enough to perform the task they were supposed to perform. Japan chose to implement the Kamikaze Pilot as a strategy in the hopes of severely crippling American Aircraft Carriers and other American Warships in the Pacific.
