This is a replica of the Mansyn Ki-98. It was a Prototype for world war two for the Japanese. For more information, see below. Enjoy.... By late in 1942 the IJN issued requirements for new combat aircraft, including a ground attack aircraft.Kawasaki proposed the Kawasaki Ki-102 and Mansyu the Ki-98. The Ki-98 was to have been a single-seat, twin-boom, low-wing monoplane with a central nacelle housing both the cockpit and a turbosupercharged1,643-kilowatt (2,200-hp) Mitsubishi Ha-211 Ru radial engine behind the pilot driving a four-bladed pusherpropeller rotating between the booms.[2] The under-slung booms extended aft from slightly forward of the leading edge of the wing with ovoid fins supporting the tailplane and elevator between them.[2] The aircraft had a retractable tricycle landing gear, bubble canopy, and an armament of one 37-mm and two 20-mm cannon mounted in the nose.[2] Entry to the cockpit was to have been through a door in the nose undercarriage bay.In the Spring of 1944 the IJN instructed Mansyu to adapt the design as a high-altitude fighter. The major change being the engine, substituting the turbocharged Mitsubishi Ha-211 Ru for the original Mitsubishi Ha-211 III. The increased bulk of the new engine requiring the fuselage to be enlarged and the larger diameter propeller necessitated moving the booms outboard.[1]Construction of the first prototype was delayed by bombing raids on the Harbin factory till January 1945. The first prototype was still under construction when the Soviet Union invaded Manchuria (Manzhouguó) early in August 1945; the Manchurian Imperial Army ordered all documentation and material to be destroyed to prevent capture by Soviet forces, bringing the Ki-98 project to an end.[1] Source: Wikipedia
