I always loved this plane, absolutely lovely shape, imo the best looking two engined fighter of WW2.

Send it, we can use another IJA twin.

Kashiide is working on the Ki-45. I hope Caspar will soon tell us if it will be in 4.11 or 4.12.

I have said it before and I will say it again. Setup a paypal account -> raise funds -> hire a 3D modeler -> Put it in the game.

Simple as that.

1000 donors x 5$ = 5000$ = costs for reference material + 3D model + cockpit

It looks like it has some kind of Schräge Musik!

It does on some models! The Japanese had a couple of aircraft including the Ki-45, Ki-46 and the J1N (which had upwards and downward firing cannons).

[EJGr.Ost_Caspar]

...which were 20mm cannons, contrary to i.e. Bf110.

[_1SMV_Gitano]

Cannos used on Schräge Musik systems were MG/FF or MG151/20 i.e. 20 mm. The Bf-110 had the option to mount Mk108 (30 mm) on the nose.

Actually the Luftwaffe envisioned the use of the Mk 108 as Schräge Musik for sheer hitting power, but pilots found the weapon too clumsy trajectory-wise and prefered the MG 151/20 for this role.
