Nakajima Ki-44 Shoki
| The Nakajima Ki-44 Shōki (Demon Queller) was a single-engined fighter aircraft used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force in World War II, first flying in August 1940 and entering service in 1942. The Allied codename was "Tojo"; the Japanese Army designation was "Type 2 single-seat fighter".
In contrast to its predecessor, the nimble Ki-43, the Ki-44 was designed for speed and climbing ability and was used to intercept high-flying B-29 bombers. With its poor visibility on the ground, weak armament, and high landing speed, it was generally disliked by pilots; its oversized engine and diminutive tail made it in some eyes one of the more unattractive aircraft of its class. Your model will be made exactly as shown in the photographs.
