Re: 9th Sentai plane - which type?
The 9th flew Ki.27s, 44s and 84s ( and Ki.10s pre-war) all in China; Nick Millman says they had some Ki.43s assigned in 1944 to make up numbers.
The tail emblem is the Kanji for "9".
If you are not familiar with Nick's excellent work check out the OSPREY publishing web-site.
