Kamikaze pilots were Japanese pilots during World War 2 who committed suicide missions against the ships by deliberately crashing their planes into ships. Thousands of these Japanese Kamikaze pilots volunteered and would commit the suicide crashes when their planes were too damaged to continue flying, or when they did not want to be captured. Kamikaze translates to "God wind" or "divine wind."


ANSWER: Kamikaze pilots

Hope this helps! :)
