Introduction

最も量産された陸軍主力戦闘機、一式戦「隼」、その改良二型です。
機体の基本設計自体は旧式となりつつありましたが、使い慣れた機体を洋上迷彩で塗装、対潜爆弾を装備、さらに本機は陸軍特設空母などでの運用に特化したif改良艦載対潜哨戒機です。
※基地航空隊戦力としても、展開＆運用可能です。

The mass-produced Type 1 Fighter "Hayabusa" was the main fighter of the IJA. This is the upgraded Model II variant.
Though its basic design was becoming obsolete, the mature design was given a maritime camouflage and anti-submarine bombs. This what-if variant is an upgraded anti-submarine patrol aircraft designed for operating off certain IJA carriers.
※This aircraft can be deployed on land bases.

Trivia

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. This plane's markings was featured as an option for a Hasegawa 1/72 Ki-43-II Otsu model kit.

The plane in the game is the Ki-43 Model II/II Otsu variant and it did sport the accurate Eggplant Blue of the 20th Sentai but in reality these planes are not able to be used for carrier operations like they are in the game due to how the planes are constructed. These were launched from land bases although the Ki-43 base planes have been noted to have been transported via carriers to other land bases (most well known and documented are the trasnfers from Soerabaja to Truk).

-The depicted plane is allegedly the Ki-43 Model 2 Kai variant (did not exist/enter service as is).
