Jan Hoek late reply to put it mildly, but yes, extremely so.It could out turn a Spitfire with ease, yet was much more rugged and heavily armoured.

I thought that was good idea to build aircraft under ground, but was not all that interested at the time. I was 20 years old at the time. The undrground facility became a storm shelter before I left for the states in 1956.

Looks very much like a P-47 Thunderbolt

The Ki-106 was the all-wood version of the Ki-84 Frank

When I was stationed at Tachikawa Japan in 1955 a Slick airways freighter parked in front of base ops had one of its main gear fall drop through the parking ramp pavement. Invetigation revealed an underground aircraft factory and there was one aircraft ready to roll off the asssembly line. I thought that was good idea to build aircraft under ground, but was not all that interested at the time. I was 20 years old at the time. The undrground facility became a storm shelter before I left for the states in 1956.

Was the KI-84 manouvreable at low or high speed due to his butterfly combat flaps?
