A dozen Ki-43s, left behind by the Japanese army, were put to limited use by the Indonesians in their independence war against the Dutch. This aircraft was actually found later in New Guinea. It is carrying drop tanks. The cockpit canopy appears to be wrong. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
