Introduction

陸軍で開発された新鋭双発爆撃機キ67四式重爆撃機「飛龍」です。
爆弾搭載量は大きくないものの、軽快な運動性を誇り、機外懸架ではありますが魚雷装備も可能。
決戦機として配備され、日本爆撃機としては充実した武装と装備を持つ本機は、困難な戦局の中で、陸軍雷撃隊としても戦いました。

This is a new twin-engine bomber developed by the IJA, the Ki-67 Type 4 Heavy Bomber "Hiryuu".
It can't carry many bombs, but is light and maneuverable. It can also carry torpedoes on external hardpoints.
It was deployed as a trump card with heavier armament and more equipment than other Japanese bombers, and it fought during the harshest period of the war in the IJA bombing corps.

Mechanics

Land-Based Attackers  bomber   are the main type of bomber used on LBAS. Their most important stats are "torpedo"   against regular ship, and "dive bombing"   against Installations, as well as their "combat radius"  .

Notes

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