for WinsWings WW2 Jets Challenge

Aircraft Info

Developed by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) as a short-range, land-based interceptor, the J7W was a response to Boeing B-29 Superfortress raids on the Japanese home islands. For interception missions, the J7W was to be armed with four forward-firing 30 mm type 5 cannons in the nose.

The Shinden was expected to be a highly maneuverable interceptor, but only two prototypes were finished before the end of war. A jet engine–powered version was considered (J7W2 Shinden-Kai), but never even reached the drawing board.

the Shinden-kai was the Turbojet variant that never entered production nor Prototype phase, due to japan losing the war and lack of resources to continue.
