Description

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.


The Ki-93 is a ground-attack aircraft prototyped by the Japanese Army. It was developed as a successor to the Mitsubishi Ki-51 assault aircraft with an emphasis on close air support; the prototype was completed and made its maiden flight in April 1945, but it was wrecked by an air raid, and the war ended shortly thereafter.

Armed with a large-caliber 57mm cannon aimed at the top armor of the tank, the aircraft was also equipped with a large Mitsubishi Ha 214 twin engine, almost as large as that carried by the U.S. Navy's Galaxy. It was also the first use of a six-bladed propeller in a Japanese aircraft. It was planned to demonstrate the same maneuverability as a twin-engine fighter. The main wing was straight with a two-step taper, making it an ideal laminar flow wing as an airfoil at high speeds. The pilot's seat was placed at the front of the fuselage to emphasize visibility, and the pilot's seat was covered with bulletproof glass and steel plates; the fuel tank was covered with rubber.
