Introduction
九州飛行機＆海軍航空技術廠が生み出した、先進的なエンテ型の試作戦闘機「震電」。
推進プロペラを後方に配置し、重火力を機体前部に集中させた後進翼の機体は、まさに未来と希望を感じさせるもの。
現実世界では、海上に飛び立つことのなかった機体ですが、「艦これ」では着艦フックと尾翼等を補強して登場です！
The creation of Kyushu Aircraft & Yokosuka Naval Air Arsenal, the advanced canard-style prototype fighter, "Shinden".
The propeller is placed in the rear, while heavy firepower is focused on the fore of the reverse-winged fuselage, exactly what you need for the future.
In the real world, this aircraft was never taken to sea, but in KanColle it has a hook and reinforced tail for its introduction!
Mechanics
Fighters
/
are one of the main types of plane used by CV(B/L). Their main role is to bring Air Power during the 1st Aerial Stage, with their "Fighter Power" 
stat being the most important factor in this regard. Fighters are additionally needed for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI) during the day Shelling.
- They can be used in Land Bases to serve the same role as Interceptors.
Notes
Not to be confused with other aircraft of this family (see here), or the Shiden aircraft family.

Trivia
- The depicted plane is allegedly the J7W2-A variant (did not exist/enter service as is).
- Historically, "Shinden Kai" actually refers to the J7W2, which was a proposed jet-powered variant of the Shinden that was never built even at the prototype level.
- Both the J7W1 Shinden prototypes and the planned J7W2 Shinden Kai were land-based aircraft. Kancolle's version is a theoretical variant with an arresting hook and reinforced airframe to facilitate carrier-based operations.
