Tthe 가와사키 Ki-61 히엔 (飛燕, "비행 제비")는 일본 제국 육군 공군이 사용하는 일본 제 2 차 세계 대전 전투기입니다. 일본군 명칭은 "육군 제3형 전투기"(三式戦闘機)였다. 연합군 정보부는 처음에는 Ki-61이 Messerschmitt Bf 109이고 나중에 이탈리아 Macchi C.202라고 믿었 기 때문에 연합군이 미국 전쟁부에 의해 할당 된 "Tony"의보고 이름으로 이어졌습니다. 그것은 액체 냉각 인라인 V 엔진을 사용하는 전쟁의 유일한 대량 생산 일본 전투기였습니다. 3,000대 이상의 Ki-61이 생산되었습니다. 초기 프로토 타입은 1942 년 4 월 18 일 두리틀 레이드 (Doolittle Raid) 기간 동안 요코하마 상공에서 행동을 보았고 전쟁 내내 전투 임무를 계속 수행했습니다.

General Characteristics
The Kawasaki Ki-61 Hien (Flying Swallow) was a fighter aircraft used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Service during World War II. It was designated the “Army Type 3 Fighter” and was notable for being the only mass-produced Japanese fighter of the war to utilize a liquid-cooled inverted V-12 engine, a design unique among its contemporaries which predominantly used air-cooled radial engines. Allied forces initially misidentified the Ki-61 as a German or Italian fighter, assigning it the reporting name “Tony.” Its liquid-cooled engine, relatively high speed, and robust construction (including self-sealing fuel tanks and armor protection) set it apart from other Japanese fighters optimized for pure maneuverability.

Powerplant and Performance
- Engine: 1 x Kawasaki Ha-40 (Army Type 2) inverted V-12 liquid-cooled piston engine (a license-built version of the German Daimler-Benz DB 601A).
- Power Output (Ha-40): 877 kW (1,175 hp).
- Power Output (Later Ha-140 in Ki-61-II): 1,119 kW (1,500 hp) (though Ha-140 had reliability issues).
- Maximum Speed (Ki-61-I at 5,000 m): Approx. 580 km/h (360 mph).
- Maximum Speed (Ki-61-II at 6,000 m): Approx. 610 km/h (379 mph).
- Service Ceiling: 10,000 m (32,810 ft) (Ki-61-I).
- Time to 5,000 m: Approx. 7.0 minutes.
Armament and Variants
- Armament Varied Significantly by Sub-Variant:
- Ki-61-I-Ko/Otsu: Early versions typically carried two 12.7 mm Ho-103 machine guns in the fuselage and two 7.7 mm (or later 12.7 mm) machine guns in the wings.
- Ki-61-I Kai Hei: Equipped with two 12.7 mm Ho-103 machine guns in the fuselage and two imported German 20 mm Mauser MG 151 cannons in the wings.
- Ki-61-I Kai Tei/Ki-61-II KAI: Later versions standardized on the Japanese 20 mm Ho-5 cannon (two in the nose, two in the wings) for a significant firepower increase.
- External Stores: Could carry two drop tanks (e.g., 200 L) or two 250 kg (550 lb) bombs on wing racks.
- Key Development: When the problematic Ha-140 liquid-cooled engine was no longer available due to factory destruction, Kawasaki adapted the airframe to use the reliable Mitsubishi Ha-112 radial engine, creating the highly successful Ki-100 fighter.
