Hey Nice Pick!, do you have one of a N1K1-Jc or a N1K2-Ja?

How about the real thing:

Looks to me like the "15" is yellow.

correction : the pilot's name was "Naoshi Kanno", not "Kannni".
BTW "Kani" means a crab in Japanese

Other info is all correct. Nice pictures

Wish I knew, but got a new computer about a year ago and failed to bring over my favorites list. Pretty sure it was from a Japanese site. I was doing searches for color pics of japanese fighters. Trying to come up with enough for a screensaver at some point.
