Bring the Ki.84-I Hayate "Frank" to Aces High

[BUG_EAF322]

climb like a la7 fast as a p51 and turn like a spitfire.

looks like a plane everybody wants to fly


especial when it goes 426mph
can't wait to get a group of em on my tail

It is FB's Ki-84.
Ki-84 should be more crap.

[Flyboy]

Ki84 will be the best plane in the MA up to around 12k

[Rasker]

hmm mebbe should perk the 100 and 150 octane fuels, hehe.

[Mathman]

I hope the Ki-84 is added.  I need some more Japanese targets to shoot at while I tool aorund the sky in my F6F.

Seriously though, I would like to see more IJN/IJAAF planes in the mix.

Ki-44
D4Y
B6N
Ki-43
Ki-100 (though the Frank should be first)

Those are just a few I wouldn't mind seeing.

Better to just not model them as the Ki-84 never flew operationally with them.

We can expect a Ki-84 to top out at 390-400mph at about 20,000ft and have a sea level speed of 325-355mph.

hehe, me and my Ki-84 will tear your F6F to pieces, and then I'll tear the pieces to pieces

bring a microwave...i hear peices of peices taste good when cooked on high for 10 minutes

[SpitLead]

I AGREE!  Use to fly it in Warbirds and am missing it here.  Was built in large enough quantities that it should be included to add to the Japanese planeset.  It is a glaring omission IMHO.

This is killing me....

Has a planeset been decided for AH2 yet? It's been christmas eve for an eternity!

I'll be in the Ki, w/o question, it won't make me a better pilot, although not much more can make me worse ...I'll just zoom A-B in ot

[Kweassa]

It is at last here.

[Pongo]

Let the whining begin!

[Ike 2K#]

What version of Ki-84 are we having?

[Karnak]

Almost certainly a Ki-84-I-Ko armed with two 12.7mm Ho-103 machine guns with 350 rounds per gun in the fuselage and two 20mm Ho-5 cannon in the wings each with 150 rounds.
