I welcome Ki-84-1-b to AH but first...

Requirements

-How many KI-84-1-B variants were built?
-Did it served the I.J.A.A.F. in numbers?

-------------------------------------------------------

Notes:

* Ki-84-Ic did not served the IJAAF in NUMBERS
* 500 were Ki-84-I-b (four 20mm)
* Therefore Ki-84-Ib should be a perk plane.

Sooo... you want a UFO of a Ki84 that has the firepower of the N1K2, and the speed range of 400+mph...???

WHY BOTHER!?!?! There would be no equal to it in the game.

Agreed bring both, B & C

AH has only little to do with a sim, almost
everybody want best material. There is
no reason why B &C is not available.

Perk it, do what you want but bring 'em
in AH. All those furballers will love them.

1K3 and Krusty,

The Ki-84 in AH already has the Homare 45-21. That is why it does 344mph on the deck.

(mitsu or anyone who knows more info about Ki-84)

Does Ki-84-I-b climb/speed/range/ect and with 2000hp Ha-45-21 data still exist?

TheThang · « **Reply #24 on:** July 18, 2005, 06:20:42 PM »

give us a ki 100 (ki 61 with better engine)

Wilbus · « **Reply #25 on:** July 18, 2005, 06:23:57 PM »

Ki84's won't do 400mph+ unless they are modelled with US High octane fuel, which I hope they never will be.

Believe we have the biggest engine already. Big enough for such a light airframe.

Bring the B!

I recall our HA-45-21 uses 87 octane fuel, not 92 right?

btw is 87 and 92 octane fuel the best the Japanese AAF hadv?

Karnak · « **Reply #27 on:** July 18, 2005, 07:05:09 PM »

It'd be generous to call their late war crap 87 octane.

It was probably about 80 to 84 octane due to the crap they were forces to add to it.

A Captured Ki84 was brought up to over 420 (430?) mph in the US on US fuel. It had been put to very good condition before though.

It is interesting because it shows what the plane was really capable off with the "right stuff".

I still can't help being amazed by it's power to weight ratio of 0.75.

1990hp engine in an (empty) 2660kg airframe is just insane for a WW2 plane IMO.

If I recall correctly, it out paced the P-51D and P-47N up to 20,000ft after which they were faster.

A bit more refinement and with US fuel and it would have been a monster. As it stands it is merely very good.
