Sweper Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Ok, it is pretty quite in here. I gonna show a little bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum DD_Fenrir Posted June 19, 2015 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted June 19, 2015 Ki-43... though could also be a Ki-61... however the colour and hint of a modern UHF aerial would indicate a restoration/replica and I know only Oscars falls into that category.

BluBear Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 I'm thinking Japanese, based on the colour-scheme however that profile does not match either the 43 or 61... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweper Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 The paint scheme is Nippon, alright. But, wrong aircraft model - if it were Japanese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DD_Bongodriver Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Ki-51 or more to the point one of these awful replicas http://www.thetexasairmuseum.org/aircraft/flyingaircraft/KI-51/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluBear Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 Rudder profile doesn't match and the tail is too high set for a 51 methinks. I don't think it is a genuine Jap aeroplane, i'm now thinking something modified for a film perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluBear Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 Fairchild Funk M62C F-23B, Mitsubishi KI-51 Replica? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DD_Bongodriver Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Replicas, I edited my previous post to include the link, though they use the term replica very loosely and I have no idea what the base aircraft they have used is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluBear Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 You got it bongo, I believe it is a Funk F-23 which i understand was a crop duster or something before being funked up to loosely resemble a Ki-51. Hideous! It's certainly a new one on me! Sweper can you confirm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweper Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I confirm mate Actually found this photo on a swedish fb-site (where I´m a member) "Flygplansfotograferna" where one of the members did see it live and took a photo of it (yes I stole it from there). So I investigated a bit more and found the very same site as Bongo did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluBear Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 Well it was a tricky one mate, and another fugly arsed aeroplane! Over to you bongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DD_Bongodriver Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I think this one is yours Blubear, you actually mentioned the funky funk thing which is technically more correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
