Aoshima A003657 1/144 IJA Type 2 Toryu
The Kawasaki Ki-45 Toryu (Japanese dragon slayer) is a Japanese, heavy, two-engine, metal low-wing fighter from the Second World War. The flight of the prototype took place in May 1941, and entry into service took place at the end of the same year. Four main versions of the Ki-45 were created: Ki-45 KAI-a (day fighter aircraft), Ki-45 KAI-b and Ki-45 KAI-d (attack aircraft), Ki-45 KAI-c (night fighter aircraft). In 1941-1943, the planes served primarily in New Guinea and Indochina, while in 1944-1945 they were used extensively as interceptors based on the Japanese islands. A certain portion of the Ki-45 was used as kamikaze planes. Technical data (Ki-45 KAI-c version): length: 11m, wingspan: 15.02m, height: 3.7m, maximum speed: 540km / h, rate of climb: 11.7m / s, maximum range: 2000km, ceiling of 10,000m, armament: fixed - 1 Ho-203 37mm cannon, 1 20mm Ho-3 cannon and 1 7.92mm machine gun
Reissue of an older kit. Features recessed panel lines and nice clear canopy glazings. No interior detail, however. A blast revetment is included with each kit (two kits in a box) for diorama purposes. Markings for two aircraft are included.
This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.
