Hello,


From the last link in the previous post in this thread,there is a photo of a Mitsubishi Ki-46


https://www.ebay.com/itm/365233270801


Can someone please assist in supplying the unit of the machine shown. If anything the marking style is more like that of JNAF machines, or perhaps it has been applied post capture? In any event, I've searched and come up empty handed.



Regards,


Clint

Clint. The Navy did have some Dinahs, not sure if the 201st. Air Group had any but tail code was 01 or 201; some were collected at Yokota (Fussa) with other types for examination and a few were sent to the US on CVEs including "BARNES". The 8th CC Sqn. was stationed at Yokota in Sept. as part of the 2nd. CCG but some of their photos were apparently taken at Clark Field and Peleliu too so maybe incorrect.
