...the sorry state of operational Japanese aircraft late in the war, when lack of rubber from Malaysia reduced the IJA to delete tyres from their aircraft, and lack of proper metals to attach the canopy to the frame, needing tape to keep it from blowing off during flight!   :wacko:
My mind is like a compost heap: both "fertile" and "rotten"!

This is superb! I have been wanting to turn a 190 into a Japanese plane for some time myself. Highly impressed with this... works amazingly well!  :wub:

That looks so right.

I suspect that the Japanese would have had trouble with the Fw 190 had they adopted it.  The climate on the islands would have played havoc with the electrics.
