Hi there.

AERO sent me this illuminated gunsight today.

OK, Here it is. :D

NOTE:
This Gunsight is for Ki-61 only.
Because Ki-61's center position of reticle is a bit higher than other plane, he adjusted it in this gunsight.

I tested in 2 planes with the same gunsight.
I fired 12.7mm wing guns only.


P-40E - Most of bullets converge to center of reticle.


Ki-61-I-KAIc - Most of bullets converge a little under X.

This is why he adjusted a position of reticle.

p.s.
an above issue is still under survey...
if it's my mistake, I'd ask AERO to make another type 3 gunsight.

I just got a latest version of type 3 gunsight.
He said that he increased colors in that gunsight.

Have fun. :)
