I'm tempted myself, but (shock horror!) do it as a 'What if?', in a reverse of Germany sending Bf109's for trial to Japan, and make it an up-armoured, German-gunned version, in Luftwaffe markings!! No doubt I'd get a verbal beating, but what the heck!
 
Neat looking model. Don't know that much about Japanese aircraft, is that one, being 'experimental', a pre-production prototype, test example or something similar?
