− | ? <!--- for English Introduction --->
| + | The Ki-96 prototype twin-engined fighter was developed using the Imperial Japanese Army's Type 2 two-seat fighter "Toryuu" as a base.<br> |
| + | A continuation of the development of that fighter that wasn't officially adopted resulted in the prominent high-speed assault aircraft, the perfected Ki-102 B.<br> |
| + | Equipped with a 57mm autocannon alongside several other autocannons, its high speed and adequate bombing power meant it was kept in reserve to fight the decisive battle where its mobility and firepower was expected to do the hard fighting. |
