Hi

 

[blackkite]

You have a deeper understanding of Japanese airplanes during World War II than most Japanese.
I show you sincere respect.

Gekko J1N1-Sa is based on version type 11 or 12 ?

 

[blackkite]

It's a difficult question for me. You already know that my knowledge for WW2 Japanese military aircraft is very poor.

If any of you are on Facebook, I did a series of articles on the J1N for a SIG called Banzai!, which is about the military of Imperial Japan (till 1945).
