Lifelike 1/48 Scale Decal Kawasaki Ki-100 Pt I for Hasegawa - 48-030

Hyperscale's review: "The Japan based company Lifelike Decals has just released a flurry of new sheets and this one, 48-030, is amongst them.

Briefly, the Ki-100 was a single seat fighter aircraft produced by Kawasaki for the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force. It came into being as a result of the need to find an alternative power plant for the licence built and troubled Daimler-Benz DB 601 that powered the Kawasaki Ki-61 Hein. From all accounts the marriage of the Ki-61 airframe to the Mitsubishi Ha-112-II radial engine resulted in what was purported to be the best of all the Imperial Japanese Army Air Forces fighters in WWII.

The sheet provides markings for five aircraft in all, finished in what the placement guide terms “yellow green #7” upper surfaces over natural metal undersides."
