Ki-43-IIa in New Guinea. This is apparently Tomio Hirohata's aircraft in the 59th Sentai. Hirohata is credited with 14 kills and also apparently later flew Ki-61s in the 244th sentai. He was KIA Apr. 22,1945.

Form 1A and Bad Penny of the 90th Bomb Group in formation over the South Pacific. Note that the waist guns have been stowed inside and a hatch closed.

Ki-43-IIa lineup. This was apparently taken at Rabaul in 1942. You can see the drop tanks are mounted on the earlier mounting points that were inboard of the gear
