Speed is a weapon in air combat, I think you agree.

US planes are fast in AH (P51, F4U).
Soviet planes are fast in AH (La7, Yak9U, La5).
German planes are fast in AH (G-10, D-9, 262)
British planes are fast in AH (Typhoon, Tempest, Mosquite so-so).

Japanese planes are not fast in AH !
Italian planes are not fast in AH (well, historical reasons).

Now, IMO, Japanese planeset needs a fast plane. Ki-84 comes to mind.

So, how about Ki-84 then ?

Yes, Ki-84 is best fighter in Japan.
I want to see it by Aces High Version 2.

Ki 84 for start.

Then FDB's new CO

Yes, as do I, paticulary the vershion with the 2 20mm, and 2 30mm canons :)If memory serves more of these were built than the infamious C hog

I agree, Ki84 is an absolute must. Japan's finest and fastest aircraft should really be included in AH.

I can'y wait to see how Superfly or Natedog treat it. It's going to be SO cool looking, and its going to break the N1K2/Spit/LA-7/P-51 stranglehold on the MA. It'll also be a welcome addition to the CT.

Mitsu, you are a very patient man.

Nahhh Brady.

We need the varient with x 4 20mm HO-5 cannons.

It would shutup the N1K2 whiners immediately.

Imagine the guns of the Chog, mounted on a 20mph faster Niki.

LOL!

LOL, can't wait to hear the whinning about the ki84, it'll just be called the SuperDuperNiki. This sim can use alot of other a/c than another nip fighter, like a nip bomber or another axis euro fighter or bomber.

I think ki84 is faster than n1k2 but it dosn't turn as well

(same engine as n1k2)

funkedup · « **Reply #9 on:** September 08, 2001, 02:06:00 PM »

Ki-84 will make the N1K2 whining seem like nothing. Bring it on!

Nik should be afraid of Ki-84 in TnB.
Ki-84's Fowler Flaps will increase its turning ability.

I love Ki-61, but also I really love Ki-84 since then seeing this plane in Chiran Special Attack Museum.

This Photo is one of my favorite photos.
I've taken this photo in Aug. 2001.

Mitsu do you have the stats on the variant with the 2 20mm, and 2 30mm handy? I am out of town again, if memory servies it is atually a little more powerfull.

I think it is the Ki 84 IIc.
