USAAF Raid, 7 April 1945

Were the opponents faced by the P-51s and B-29s all JAAF? I say this because very few of the claims that day identify JNAF aircraft. Capt RW Moore claims two "Hamps" but there are no other claims for Zekes/Hamps. However "Tojos" and "Tonys" are reported. Five JAAF "Dinahs" (misidentified as "Nicks") are also reported shot down. "Oscars" are not an option. Are these "Franks" or Ki-100?

If so then Moore's other victories in April are also Ki-100/Frank
