Comments[edit]

I have no technical background on this subject, but the "If the invasion . . . resulting in the annih[i]lation of the American invasion of Japan" bit seems pretty dodgy. Regardless of how likely that might have been--and, again, someone else could speak to that better than I could--I'm not sure such certain terms should ever be used for historical speculation.

Are there any sources for the stats listed on this page?? 12,000 planes per month is an astronomical production rate, even for a disposible kamakazi plane.

I made a point editing the discription for this aircraft with information from the book I mentioned in the article. I would like to know who created this entry to begin with. Nothing was mentioned about it being used in the 'Kamikaze' role, it's construction methods, or it's planned production numbers. The performance figures that were posted before truly show this entry was not based on accurate information. Originally, it was posted that the top speed was 285mph(460kmh). Given the lowest top speed for other lower powered verions was 385mph(620kmh), a 100mph speed drop due to only losing only a couple hundred hp, but losing over 1,000lb in weight for such a hot ship like the Ki-84 doesn't fit. The all-wood Tachikawa-built Ki-106 was the heaviest with only a 100hp more than the Ki-84, yet was only 7mph slower. So, the lightweight Ki-116 deserves more credit.

WP: Japan & Mil Hist Assessment Commentary[edit]

I assessed the article for WP:Japan and re-assessed for WP:Mil History. I thought the article could use a little more coverage, probably in a "Background" section. Why was this plane being developed? Was it just to build a better interceptor, or was their a specific target in mind? I didn't even know there was an aircraft factory in Manchukuo. What was it's significance? (biggest or only aircraft on the Asian mainland?) So, I'd say this article is not far from a B-class. Good luck. Boneyard90 (talk) 03:10, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
