Title: Defusing the NIK2-J
Post by: F4UDOA on June 27, 2002, 02:55:15 PM

I have read many reports of the uber NIK2 in AH and now these reports are being propagated into actual wartime events. Unless someone can prove otherwise please read this before spreading more misinformation about an already misunderstood A/C.

This artical comes from Jan. 2002 issue of Aviation history. It is a reprint of the data listed in "Imperial Japanese Navy Aces 1937-45" by researcher Henry Sakaida.

Samm,

Notice the end of the artical which makes mention of the overclaiming by the 343'rd on that day you mentioned.

the nikis got vulched!
Thats funny but in a sad way I guess

Nikis get defused just fine, stick some mg151 into his cockpit does him right. Dont turn with the thing unless your gonna kill it for sure. I have no trouble killing nikis at all. About the only time they get me is if Im heavy or ack knocks a wing off first.
