It was less maneouverable than other Japanese planes, but it's the same than MIG-3 was less maneouverable than other Soviet fighters. Ki-44 was fitted with same butterfly flaps that Ki-43 and it was more maneouverable than most allied planes. I think is more or less as nimble as J2M (but more difficult to fly, maybe), with a superior climb rate.
The IIb was the main version. Was armed with 4 12'7 machine-guns. The latter IIc had different weapons: 2x12'7 +2x20mm, or 2x12'7+2x40mm (recoiless gun), or 2x12'7+2x37mm.
In game, I'm using the I-185 (The M-82 one, not the other beast) as the closest thing as a hack plane.
Looking forward one of my favourite planes!
