Yes, Jack was the allied code name assigned to the J2M Raiden, just like George for the N1K, and Tony for the Ki-61 etc. This is another must have...I want it!  BTW, which is the model 11? J2M3? J2M4?

Ki-44 Tojo
Ki-45 Nick
Ki-100 (Tony)
J2M Jack
H8K Emily

these planes are cool but not released in other online WWII Flight Simulators.

I hope that they would be released in Aces High first. :)

Hi Vermillion, IIRC charts are from the TAIC manual. I got them from butch2k's BBS. Hes very kind and replies to many questions about performance data.

I asked in one post where butch got them, but I didn't see a reply.

FYI thats not from the TAIC manual published by Planes of Fame, which I have.  Thats from a slightly different set of reports called ATAD.

Thanks though, I am curious where he gets them :)

Add the J2M and more than half of AH's Japanese aircraft would be Mitsubishi products.
