Introduction

三式戦「飛燕」を駆り、東京調布に展開して首都防空に奮戦した陸軍戦闘機隊、飛行第244戦隊です。
戦いの最終局面では、「飛燕」を空冷化した信頼性の高い「五式戦」に機種転換し、敵新型機に対抗していきます。

These Type 3 Fighter “Hien”’s are piloted by the 244th Air Combat Group, part of the Army’s fighter forces who bravely took part in the defenses of the capital city while deployed Chofu, Tokyo.
For the final stage of the war, these “Hien’s” have had their engines upgraded to a much more reliable liquid-cooled variant used by the “Type 5 Fighter”.

Mechanics

Land-Based Fighters/Interceptors    are LBAS exclusive fighters, that are used to either:

  • Provide Sortie Fighter-Power, where the "fighter Power"  , "interception"  , and "combat radius"   stats are the most important,
  • Intercept enemy bombers, where the "fighter Power"  , "interception"  , and especially the "anti-bomber"   stats are the most important.

Notes

Not to be confused with other aircraft of this family (see here).
