A Ki-100 fighter plane from the 59th Army Squadron, seized by the occupying U.S. forces in 1945.
At the start of the war, this unit was the first to deploy the Type 1 Hayabusa fighter, and achieved great success along with the 63rd Sentai. After retreating to the mainland in 1944, it was reorganized into the Type 3 Fighter.
Due to a succession of malfunctions, the planes were converted to Type 5 fighters and their fighting power was conserved for the mainland battle.
