We definitely running out of planes.

 

I don`t think so. I have 5 questions and I`m just waiting for my turn to ask them one by one. :devil_2:

 

We could move on to body parts of famous centerfolds.

 

:laugh: that`s gonna be tough

we've had that one before. Can't remember it's name, but there was something about too much drag when shooting, so it had to fire in small burst... A supposed tank-buster if i remember right.

Japanese?

 

You know giving the country name is the last that I would do. It`s second only to telling the name of the company that produces the aircraft. :D

 

got a better detailed picture?

 

I don`t have a better one.

Topol, could you send the link where you got that photo from? The cockpit looks almost identical to Ki-100 in IL-2 1946. Ki-61 looks very similar but the arrangement of gauges is different.

Look at a couple of details from these screenies:

 

Ki-100:

Ki-61:

I don`t remember where i got it from but I have a picture of Ki-100`s cockpit. Here it is, definitely not the same as Ki-61`s although very similar:

I think the problem is the lack of a proper photo of Ki-100 cockpit. Your Ki-100 photo is also very close to the riddle photo. The VSI is on the "wrong" side compared to IL-2 screenshot but that could be just because someone put it there by accident. I don't consider IL-2 as a bible but the differences do raise suspicions in me. However you have a source and I also found another forum where you can see your riddle photo. In the link you can also see on the bottom of the page the IL-2 style Ki-61 cockpit. I'll end this here and Namenlos can ask his question. :)

That`s SHARC (Subsonic High Alpha Research Concept). It`s a subsonic bomber project based on YF-23 :D
