As the only mass-produced Japanese army fighter with a liquid-cooled V-engine, it clearly differed from the light, radial-engined designs of the Land of the Rising Sun.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe prototype was first flown in early 1942, and by August of the same year, the first production models had entered service with the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force. When the Americans first encountered the Ki-61 in combat, they initially mistook it for a German Messerschmitt Bf 109, and then for an Italian design. Hence the Allied code name \"Tony\". From 1943, Hien fighters fought over New Guinea, New Britain, the Philippines and later defended the Japanese islands themselves against raids by B-29 Superfortress bombers. The new Hien proved to be the only Japanese fighter capable of effectively operating at high altitudes against B-29 Superfortress bombers. In the final stages of the war, some of the aircraft were even used in kamikaze units.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy build the Kawasaki Ki-61 Hien set from COBI?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1:48 scale – The perfect compromise between detail and compact size.
