Nakajima Ki-190-II 薙刀 "NAGINATA"

August 2, 2023 · in Aviation · · 7 · 411

We all know the Japanese Army AF tested the FW-190A-5 aircraft.

My Idea was to create a production version build by the company.

I used the older kit for the project.

The wings were reengraved and converted to install two licensed MG151/20 guns per wing.

The prop and spinner are from the very old Hasegawa N1K2 kit, which was damaged during building years ago. Hope you like my quick .

NAGINATA is a Japanese stab weapon from the 12th century used by monks and foot soldiers.

Best regards
