Product Description

--Kawasaki Ki-100 is the only liquid-cooled fighter among the Japanese fighters that were active in the Pacific War.
――As a result of efforts to reduce air resistance and weight, it was completed as a well-balanced aircraft that can maximize both speed and mobility, and was officially adopted in 1943.
――However, the inadequacy of production due to the lack of basic industrial power and the malfunction of the Ha40 liquid-cooled engine due to unfamiliarity with maintenance were the crying points of this machine.
――Still, you are doing well in the Philippines, New Guinea, and the mainland air defense battles.
――Especially in the mainland air defense battle, the stable supply of parts and the work of veteran maintenance personnel maintained a high operating rate, and the high air performance was better than other Japanese aircraft, so we are struggling to fight against the B-29.
――Especially, in the 244th Air Squadron, the youngest squadron commander in the history of the Army, Captain Teruhiko Kobayashi, showed a fierce battle, and by the end of the war, more than 160 B-29s were shot down, boasting the best results of the unit. ¡

――The kit will reproduce the type C escort with a completely new mold.
――The highlights are the density of engraving suitable for 1/32 scale and the reproduction of the cockpit composed of many parts.
--Since the familiar large girder parts are used for the mounting parts of the main wing and fuselage, reliable positioning is possible.
--There are two types of windshields, a one-piece type for the closed state and a three-piece type for the open state.
-A sitting posture figure is included. Two types of head parts are available, with and without an oxygen mask.
--Decals are Captain Teruhiko Kobayashi [295] (Chofu Airport: January 1945), the commander of the 244th Air Squadron, and two other types.
