Yeah sure was A Ki-84-1c, but from what I have been told "It was as flying pig" & was only good when it had it's nose pointed to the ground.

To see KillnU in a P-38 again :D

Yes, more Jap Planes!
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

The Ki-84 holds the record for the most produced aircraft in Japan in a single year, ever.  That was 1944, not 1945.

About 500 Ki-84-I-Otsu were built (four Ho-5 20mm cannon) and about 3000 Ki-84-I-Ko (two Ho-103 12.7mm machine gunsand two Ho-5 20mm cannons).  A very few, less than 5, were built with two 20mm and two 30mm, but they never saw combat so far as I have ever found.
