KIT # 43 NAKAJIMA Ki-84 FRANK.
The Ki-84, Hayate (Hurricane), code named Frank was generally regarded
as the best Japanese Army fighter of WW2. A captured Ki-84-1a was to
out climb and out maneuver a P-47 and a P-51. The first batches were
sent to
China
, where the 22nd Sentai, when equipped with the new
fighter, was able to fly rings around Chennault's 14th Air Force.
The 22nd Sentai later moved to the
Philippines, where problems overtook
them, with many accidents and shortages and extremely poor
serviceability. Our model is in 1/24 scale with a wingspan of 18.45".
The kit includes all the usual good stuff Diels' kits are known for,
including printed plans with complete instructions, printwood, color
decals, Japanese tissue, plastic prop and hardware, rubber, and
vacuum formed plastic canopy.
