This particular plane is from the 20th Squadron which was a notable squadron deployed in Taiwan. This squadron utilized a unique "Eggplant Blue" color scheme while most army air groups used a mix of silver or IJA green color scheme. The squadron was trained in 1943 in Itami and originally deployed to the Kurils and then Okinawa within a year. Afterward, they were deployed in 1944 to Taiwan where 2 of their planes fought off 36 Hellcats and even managed to shoot down some US planes. They were then moved to the Philippines islands during the American offensive to recapture the territory. After the defense of the Philippines, they were moved back to Taiwan. This squadron was used for offshore patrols.
