Designed by Hideo Itokawa, the Nakajima Ki-43 was the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force's equivalent to the Mitsubishi A6M, though more lightweight and less sturdy. Aimed at replacing the Ki-27, the Ki-43 had a high rate of climb, excellent maneuverability, and a top speed of over 300mph. The Ki-43 was the most produced fighter for the IJAAF, with nearly 6,000 built, and it served throughout the entire war.
