And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Japanese heavy flying boat Kawanishi H8K2 "Emily". Antennas of the onboard search radar station are visible on the bow and sides of the boat. 1944
Arguably the best flying boat of WW2 but not helped by poor quality control in manufacture (a common defect in later Japanese designs as materials and skill shortages bit).
