    FAO Shinpachi: Mitsubishi Ki-46-III

    Greetings my friend. Today I visited RAF Cosford Museum and took a few photos of the Ki-64 for you. I must apologise for the poor photographs, I was using my phone camera. However a friend of mine with a far better camera was on hand to help out, and as soon as he sends his shots to me I'll pass them on to you.

    I have the photos I posted in much higher resolution so if you pm me with an email address I'll send them, they are quite large and far better.
