StefanC is currently working on this one,he has asked for help in the WIP section saying he is stuck on the modeling,anyone here here with experience please contact him.
As stated before,this fighter was the best bomber interceptor the JAAF had,with a faster climb than the JNAF's Raiden on even the KI84

it 's not only the historical importance of this plane or how fun missions can be made. I believe this plane was a masterpiece given the engineering limitations. For example, it had a long diameter radial engine designed for bombers.Can you imagine a UK spec (in a imaginery merlin-less world) creating a high speed interceptor with a hercules engine? In the world of 14 cylinder radials, possibly only the R-2600 was equally unsuitable for fighters (but of course with around 200 bhp more).
