[PEA] Mitsubishi J2M5 Raiden (Overhaul)
Part Efficient Aircrafts!
It's the J2- hey wait a sec didn't I already do this??
Your answer is yesn't.
OK, so, yes I've made a J2M before. Two J2M3s to be exact, one of which was my most upvoted plane for some time. However, the J2M5 fixes a myriad of issues mostly regarding speed, stability, and aesthetics. So with improved skill, I built another J2M from the ground up, this time a J2M5!
Still worried about its pitch agility though ;-;
PEA Lore:
Almost unsurprisingly, the J2M5's best friend is... J2M3. But after J2M3, it's A6M2, but the J2M5's third best friend is actually Rafale.
J2M5s aren't necessarily warm-blooded (since planes have no blood), but they are the PEA equivalent of warm-blooded, so basically they just prefer to be warm. This is one of the main reasons you'll rarely find them in night-interceptions, turning targets that J2M5s would normally leave well-protected during the day into easy prey once it's night.
Also, J2M5 is a bit... strange. It was allegedly built to intercept the B-29, yet B-29s have reported the J2M5s hitching a ride on them like some sort of flying Uber. Got any ideas for what the issue is?

Yes, I like the J2M.
@OkaNieba
Yep, forget Russian and American Bias, this right here is Peak Japanese Engineering lol
Finally, A Raiden That Can Reach Mach 1 And Do Cobra PSM
Very sigma
@Karroc9522 Yep lol, this also means that while the Raiden could fly in cold environments, it just prefers not to.
I would be concerned if the plane had blood ngl. Glad you had to make that clear lol.
@SuperSuperTheSylph He could, but it's a long journey. Right now, the PEA B-1B comfortably holds top spot with a record of 41 upvotes, a huge jump from the MiG-15 at 35 and YF-23 at 34. Plus, within a two week span, the P-39 has more upvotes than any other PEA I've uploaded within 14 days at 26 updoots, but hey, anything can happen. Raiden overtook once, maybe once more...
will Raiden come back on top?
