After looking at this aircraft some more I have come to the conclusion it is one & the same in all these photos. As well as the video.

The former squadron logo on the right side of the tail is white as seen in the video. The left side former squadron logo  however looks a little dark for white so the profile showing yellow seems to be correct. :aok

Couple more of this one as it is getting its tail clipped.

Seems they activated mine as well. I can see my screenshots in old threads again.

I'm still not going back, though.

Or maybe I might for $400.  :devil

I did get a email some time back asking why I would not pay for the service. Told them they screwed everyone over & why would I use a service that would do that.

Guessing they must have been a huge backlash from consumers.

I seem to recall Devil and FTJR reserved a lot of Ki-61 schemes when it was updated a few years ago, but I can't find the post which says which ones. Are these still reserved or can I pick anything from this thread?

Greebo, you can disregard any claim I have made. I'll be busy enough with German fighters and the occasional P-40.

Likewise, I surrender all claims to the Ki61. Thanks.

68th Sentai.

This partial photo shows the aircraft on the deck of a carrier being transported there is debate as to where & when.
It is also the only known photo of this aircraft & it has a spiral pattern on the the spinner unusual for Japanese aircraft. The only other Hien I have seen with one is a 244th Sentai plane.

No profiles I have found only some modeling pictures.











Profile now.
