		The Nakajima A6M2-N Zeke was a Japanese single-seat fighter seaplane of the Second World War developed from the Misubishi A6M fighter on the demand of the Imperial Japanese Navy in 1941, and first flown in December 1941.
		Nakajima A6M2-N, code named Rufe by the Allies, was essentially a Mitsubish A6M fighter with a large central float which also contained an auxiliary fuel tank, stabilising floats beneath the wings and increased vertical tail surfaces.
		The Nakajima B5N was a cantilever, low-wing monoplane with retractable tail wheel landing gear and was manned by a crew of three comprising a pilot, radio operator, and observer/bomb-aimer.

	Nakajima Ki-115 Tsurugi Review by Matt Swan (Eduard 1/48)
		Designed by Nakajima engineer Aori Kunihiro, the major impetus in building this aircraft was the perceived lack of available obsolete aircraft to use in kamikaze attacks should the Allies invade the home islands.
		Nakajima also added auxiliary flaps to the inboard wing trailing edges and installed fittings beneath each wing for two solid-fuel rockets to boost speed during the final plunge.
		Nakajima had already been given the order to urgently mass-produce it and 104 aircraft were ultimately produced.

		In December 1939 Nakajima was instructed by the Imperial Japanese Army to initiate development of a more advanced fighter to supercede the company's own Ki-27, the first of three prototypes making its maiden flight during January 1939.
		A cantilever low-wing monoplane, this Nakajima Ki-43 had retractable tailwheel landing gear, seated its pilot in an enclosed cockpit and was powered by Nakajima's new supercharged Ha-25 Sakae radial engine with a take off rating of 975 hp (727 kw).
		Service testing of the prototypes showed that the type met the specification, but manoeuvrability was so poor that, at one time, it seemed the new fighter was unlikely to be accepted by the army.

		A Nakajima Ki.43-I from the 1st Chutaï, 50th Sentai in Burma.
		It was designed as the same time as the Ki.44 Shoki ("Tojo"), but these two projects had opposite goals: the Ki-43 was to be a light and manoeuvrable dogfighter (sacrificing speed and firepower), and the Ki.44 had been ordered as a cannon-armed interceptor (sacrificing maniability).
		The Ki.43-IIa was powered by a 1,150 hp Nakajima Ha-115 engine with a three-bladed propeller, was equipped with self-sealing fuel tanks and light armour, and was able to carry a pair of 250 kg (551 lb) bombs.

		The Ki43 is a more difficult plane to shoot down than the Zero, because unlike Mitsubishi, Nakajima put in a bit of pilot armor (not much by US standards), and self sealing fuel tanks.

		Nakajima entrusted the task of designing the new fighter to a team under the supervision of Hideo Itokawa, and this team quickly evolved a cantilever low-wing monoplane of basically all-metal construction with fabric-covered control surfaces.
		The core of the structure was the semi-monocoque fuselage, which changed from a circular section at the front to an oval section father to the rear in the area of the cockpit, which was raised above the line of the fuselage and provided the pilot with very good fields of vision.
		The second Service trials aircraft was also fitted with an experimental Nakajima Ha-105 radial with two-speed supercharger, while the seventh example was fitted with 2 × 0.50 inch (12,7 mm) Ho-103 machine guns.
