Time to get back to my roots in this thread . Here's a very rare photo of Ki-43s of the Manchukuo Air Force. I have been looking for a photo of these for ages and I finally found one. They are the Ki-43-II Ko variant, the early production Ki-43-II. I had to edit the Wiki article after finding this since it stated they only had 3 Ki-43s. The truck is starting the engine. They apparently only received these in 1945 and had been intercepting B-29s with Ki-27s.
