I'd love to see a track of that fight! You must have killed the pilot or cut the control cables to get the kill. Otherwise, the P-47 would just shrug off all those light machine gun rounds.
I should have saved the .trk definitely my most epic fight ever. Best it also happened in a proper mission, the P47D-10 followed my Ki-43-II in a very long climbing turn then i noticed he began to fall back, I was able to flip the little Hayabusa around and got a long burst into his cockpit & engine from the high 4 O'clock at ~150m range and he went down.

But the old, incorrect Ki-43 model would have to be retained, for the same reason that the old, incorrect P-40 models must be retained.
Both Ki-43 and P-40 series deserve some work as they came in many variants over many years, both having ~40mph improvement from early to late models! A Ki-43-III needs a P-40N for company!
