HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Kawasaki Ki-61 Hien, codenamed "Tony" by the Allies, played a significant role in the later stages of World War II as a high-performance Japanese fighter aircraft. Capt. Teruhiko Kobayashi, flying with the 244th Sentai of the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force (IJAAF), operated the Ki-61 from Chofu Air Base in 1945. The Ki-61 was distinctive for being the only mass-produced Japanese fighter aircraft to feature a liquid-cooled inline V engine.
In 1945, during the waning days of the war, the Ki-61 was employed in various Pacific Theater conflicts, engaging Allied aircraft in intense dogfights. Known for its speed and agility, the Ki-61 could hold its own against many contemporary fighters. Despite facing challenges such as limited resources and evolving air combat dynamics, Capt. Teruhiko Kobayashi and other Ki-61 pilots demonstrated skill and determination in their missions.
The 1:72 scale model allows aviation enthusiasts and history buffs to appreciate the details of this iconic Japanese fighter. This meticulously crafted replica captures the essence of the Ki-61's design and its historical significance and serves as a tribute to the pilots and aircraft that played a crucial role in the aerial conflicts of World War II.
