With extreme attention to detail Tamiya has recreated this formattable aircraft. Using a liquid-cooled Ha-40 engine, slimline fuselage and long elegant wing this aircraft was a stand out in the Japanese fleet. Featured a 20cm-elongated nose to house 20mm cannons, plus 12.7mm machine guns in the wing you would not want to meet business end of this aircraft. With 1,360 units it was the most prolifically produced Hien variant; its superior performance at higher altitudes meant that it was often given the brief of taking on incoming U.S. B29 bombers in the skies around the home islands of Japan.
