Fantastic work on this. Is a good reference for detailing but I have no wish to create that many plug wires.

My imagination has been extended as the Dodge reminded me of Tokyo Gas & Electric Co which had nothing to do with the aero industry but was asked to build aircraft engines during the war. Dedicating to the Tokyo Gas & Electric Co.

Thanks gents.
For the record, the caption says -

Aircraft Engines (and Airframes)

Our aircraft engines built by the genuine domestic parts have been recognized excellent performances from the earliest stage due to our unique design to be adopted by the Army and the Navy contributing somehow to the Empire.

Moreover, despite it is not long since we engaged in the airframe production, we honourably gained a great deal of praises from all classes of people for our light passenger planes, trainers and medium-sized passenger planes as excellent genuine domestic ones to enter service in not only homeland but Korea, Taiwan and Manchukuo.

Especially the recent long-distance aircraft designed by Tokyo Imperial University in whose production we participated would be exactly the wonder of the world.
