Due to MK9 production delays however, the Navy instructed Mitsubishi's design team to use the Nakajima NK9. − The Type 17 carrier fighter's development was further delayed due to production facilities prioritizing production of the A6M-series fighters and Mitsubishi's G4M bomber as well as fixing issues with A6M variants and Mitsubishi's J2M ''Raiden''. The A7M1 ''Reppū'' prototype finally flew in May 1944, demonstrating excellent handling and manueverability but could not attain its lofty 640km/h target due to the underpowered NK9 engine. The Navy ordered development stopped due to the failure, but Mitsubishi obtained permission to test the aircraft with the MK9 engine.+ + − The A7M2 prototype flew in October 1944, achieving a top speed of 628km/h while surpassing the Zero in many performance metrics, leading the Navy to officially adopt the type.+ − Saburo Sakai declared it the finest fighter he had ever seen, while engineers claimed it could fight at altitudes up to 12km.+ − The A7M2 ''Reppū'' was expected to replace the A6M ''Zero'' as the standard fighter of Japanese air-forces, but production was disrupted due to earthquakes, Allied bombing raids and the loss of schematics and manufacturing jigs. The A7M ''Reppū'' subsequently never flew in combat.+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + − The [[Reppuu Kai (Strong Gale)|A7M3-J ''Reppū-kai'']] was proposed as an interceptor with an increased maximum speed of 648km/h using a forced-induction version of the Mitsubishi MK9 and an armament consisting of six 30mm cannons. A working prototype was never produced. − [[wikipedia:Mitsubishi A7M|Mitsubishi A7M]] − [[Category:Equipment]]
