Tamiya made 1/48 Mitsubishi Ki46-III-Kai Dinah Inte (61056) Propeller Aircrafts Military Series assembly kit

The Mitsubishi Hyakushiki Shiteir is supposed to be among the best Japanese aircraft. Developed as a high-altitude, high-speed reconnaissance aircraft, it proved very successful and had been used through the entire pacific war by japan Army. Soon before China-based B-29s initiated high-altitude daylight raids over Japan, it became ovcious on Japanese military leaders that an urgent growth of an interceptor fighter with good shows at thin air had been necessary. In June 1943, the Army Aeronautical Research Institute learned the likelihood of adjusting the Hyakushiki Shiteir, that has been mostly of the operational aircraft within the Japanese Army to have the required altitude performance, for this style of operation. In-may 1944, the project had been approved and urgently completed. To install two 20mm device guns regarding the nose, the forward fuselage fuel tank were changed and nose canopy ended up being modified to "stepped" nose housing. The aircraft with your customizations had been called Hyakushiki Shitei III Kai Air Defence Fighter "Otsu" type. Further, in July 1944, the Army ordered to incorporate a 37mm dorsal canon tofire forward and upward at an angle of 70 degrees. Aircraft with this addition was called "Otsu + Hei" type. Although many of them had been flown by reconnaissance aircraft pilots with few dog figh experience, they made greater armed forces gains against B29s proving the outstanding fundamental capability of the Hyakushiki Shitei.
