Mitsubishi G4M2a "Betty" assigned to the Naval Technical Arsenal, Japan. Aircraft was
overall orange in color for visibility during
tests. Anti-glare black was painted forward of the cockpit, and on the engine cowlings.

The number on the tail indicated it was the 33rd development aircraft, for the G4 land-based attack aircraft series.
the first symbol letter and number on the tail were for the Naval Arsenal.Later during the war, test aircraft were camouflaged with standard IJN green topside with the undersides in orange.
