Product Description
--Shinden made its maiden flight at the Ryoda Airfield in Kyushu on August 3, 1945, at the end of World War II and the Pacific War.
――This aircraft has a very unusual shape, and the main wing is brought to the back and the small wing, which is usually called the horizontal stabilizer, is placed in front.
--The engine is at the rear of the fuselage and the propeller is mounted backwards.
--This method, called the canard wing, can increase the hit rate by equipping the center of the fuselage with a machine gun because there is no propeller on the nose.
――In addition, the line of the aircraft becomes smooth and you can get high speed.
--Shinden was created to fight against long-range bombers such as the B-29, but after the war on August 15th, it did not play an active role at all.

* Velocity is measured by Shinden at the most efficient atmospheric pressure and temperature altitude during flight. This altitude depends on the aircraft. Since Shinden was short from the first flight to the end of the war, the maximum speed is the planned speed.
