+1  KI-43     

it would look real pretty  burning next to an A6M and Niki   :devil

Especially if shot down by a RAF Buffalo Mk.I.

We'd need a Buffalo Mk I for that, and have fun getting a Ki-43-I in front of a Buffalo Mk I.

What about the Judy ? I think that was the replacement for either the Kate or the Val.

For the Val, and it was the fastest dive bomber in WWII.
