Ki-84 Field modified two seater

[otftch]

This is a nakajima Ki-84 modified in the filed as a two seat trainer. They were used for pilot transition to the newer fighter planes. It is thought there were no controls in the rear seat , probably just a voice tube. Kit is from one of the old Revell three kits in one to 1/72 scale. This is one of three I'm just finishing up.

Looks realistic enough to be plausable... might there be some real-life info upon these exceedingly rare conversions?

Here is one of only a couple of bad photos of this bird, and the profile that I started with. If you go to J-aircraft forum under Army you will find some info.Thanks to Jim Landsdale for the photo and Jim Long for thier help with this project.

Thanks Otftch the screen framework for the 2nd pit seems very Ki-43/44 like, certainly as they're Nakajima's/Fuji's...
