Another nice addition to my nippon 1/100 collection!
In time this time is an esoteric, unknown, but noisy medium
bomber from Imperial Japanese Army Aviation of the interwar
period. The Mitsubishi Ki-1 Type I 93 was developed from the
Junkers S36 produced in Sweden in the late 20 Japanese adapted this model (which was a civilian plane) for military
applications notably bomber, inserted using a pair of Rolls
Royce Buzzard engines and a number of other minor changes.
Obsolete at the time of its introduction (1931), Ki-1 had a
poor performance, including being unable to fly with one engine something vital to a bomber). After production of about 45 units production moved to Ki-1 II variant with redesigned wings, landing gear and engine nacelles in the Rolls Royce Eagle. It was then used in conjunction and after replaced by Mitsubishi Ki-2, BR-20 by Fiat and the Ki-21 in 1936. Ki-1/2 was called by the combined system identification code names in World War II "Luise" ( Luisa)and were used in Manchuria and the first Sino-Japanese War with limited results. During World War II, some were assigned to Manchukuko and others were used in secondary tasks in metropolitan Japan.
