What would happen if a kamikaze pilot decided to not go through with the suicidal attack? If they returned would they very likely have been executed? What were the procedures in place to deal with such a thing?
See this post by u/Myrmidon99. Most likely nothing would happen after one time (unless the pilot was openly disobedient) but for the more failures and more suspicious the circumstances the more likely would be the punishment - which ranged from being transferred to infantry to immediate execution.
