The [still image](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GnyV-yjXcAAXri-?format=jpg&name=large) from this scene is rather well known and is also featured on the B6N Wikipedia article. The aircraft is described as having taken a direct hit from a 5 inch anti-aircraft shell, however it is clear from the footage that the wing comes off after taking multiple hits from 20mm cannon at close range.
