Re: Photos Japanese Army Airforce

Hello Nick,


Thanks for the reply. Given that the Ki-67 To-Go, as seen in the other link,were based at Clark Field and at Margot with the Fugaku Tai, it seems quite possible, in conjunction with the location given by you for the 479th, that the fighter is from the same location.However, checking the obvious sources, Emblems of the Rising Sun and the Avions magazine 231 with an article dedicated to Japanese fighters in the Philippines, I'm still puzzled by the tail marking.I'm starting to wonder if it too is from a Special attacker unit.Still could be that the photos are from different locations.



Regards,


Clint
