Photo Comment
Among the many types that was abandoned by the Japanese in some numbers at the end of WWII is the Ki-43. This is one of them, recovered from Babo airfield in West Papua in the 1980s and restored statically to represent one of about 12 that were pressed into service by the Indonesians during their independence struggle against the Dutch in the late 1940s This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
