Ok AKAK here is the coverted pakage of gunsights. If we get the Ki43 and 44 I will make a JPType100. AKAK from what I could research the original N2-N3 gunsights in P38's had only a 30Mil ring and dot. This was true for all aircraft that used them like P39-40 except for the Navy at Midway when they converted them to 35Mil. It was not until June/43 that N2-N3 were upgraded to a 70Mil ring and dot.

I tested this URL on a second PC. Let me know if it has any problems.

Updated link with Type98 125Mil gunsight used in many Japanese fighters. Yes it's huge and yes it goes past the edge of the reflector plate. The 75MIl ring will show on your reflector plate. If you move your head up down or to the sides you will see the 100Mil and 125Mil rings.
