Re: Photo Nieuport
Very nice photo Clint
Showing the 83rd aircraft built by the Arsenal at Tokyo late 1922. Since the aircraft looks extremely fresh, I would say it is possibly right outside the manufacturer's premises. There is another one here https://www.ebay.com/itm/u9-Imperial....c100047.m2108 Beside 13 imported in 1918-19 (initially using their French SFA numbers, but reserialled as No 1 - 13), two state companies, plus Nakajima, licence built the type (295 in all) This was the first true fighter the Japanese Army had. As soon as the import/licence production of the Nieuport 29 got into full swing I presume the Kô-3 was transferred to advanced training units. Cheers Stig |
