| DONE: KI-48-I Type 99 (Lily) Group Build Well after reading and looking at everyone's builds i thought I try my hand at another build.This will be totally OOB in 1/72, submitted as Catagory 2, for I have always wanted to build this plane.I will be doing the camo verison because there is a thin blue line for demacation between the Green and Brown I always thought would look sweet.Just how to make it happen uniformily?The history?got me looks cool,it belongs to 3rd Chutai 8th Hiko Sentai.The info provided is that the Army wanted a light,fast,manuverable attack bomber and this is what they got.It could reach a top speed of 480km/hr and cruise at 350km/hr for 6 hrs and climb to an altitude of 5000m in 10minutes. Crew = 4 Length = 17.47m wingspan = 15.85m height = 3.8m wing area = 40m2 weapons = 3 fixed 7.7mm bomb load = 400kg engine = 2@970hp Naka HA-25

| Didn't think you'd be long in joining in! Looks like a nice kit Kevin, should be good. Don't know much about this kite, it's got the look of a Marin Baltimoe about it. Looking forward to the build mate.
