Kawanishi Aircraft: Dreamers in the service of the IJN
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Do you know how the Japanese aircraft industry was created? It was all about big industrial and financial conglomerates creating aircraft manufacturing branches, then adding design bureaus to them, finding suppliers and service partners etc. It was all very orderly, with very little room for rogue agents, dreamers or crazy ambitious schemes... but the Kawanishi aircraft company clearly didn’t get the memo. Founded by a bunch of geeks, this manufacturer proved to be extremely flexible: the history of the company is full of twists and turns, with many events that were simply not supposed to happen in the brutal market governed by big industrial conglomerates.

#WarThunder
Fun fact: The Shiden has automatically deploying combat flaps for optimal turning performance at all times.
But what if you want to conserve energy and wouldn't mind turning not as sharp?
@@_ryannnnnnnn_ then don't pull as much.
@@_ryannnnnnnn_ there was really no need for energy for slow fighters
@@gigachad8425 A silly comment. Every plane needs energy. Real life isn't Warthunder.
@@gigachad8425 But Shiden Kai is not that slow, it is around 20kmh slower than Hellcat, and can reach up to 650 kmh in 6 thousand meters
US also test the aircraft and the engine perform very great with good octan fuel
Kawanishi goes by the name ShinMeywa nowadays. They design and build seaplanes such as the magnificent and quirky STOL flying boat US-2 for the JSDF.
It is as large as an A320, with a start/stall speed of 90kph.
The Madlads are still at it ahahaha
I wont be surprised if we see a Jet with floaters ahahaha
Most if not all Japanese aircraft manufacturers are still in business just most are under different names
Wow
@@akriegguardsman Yup. Aichi merged into Nissan, Nakajima became Subaru, and Kawanishi became ShinMeywa. Mitsubishi and Kawasaki are obviously both still around.
Kawanichi engineer : Sir, do you need new model of aircraft?
Top command : I think that we have enough model for this type of aircraft.
Kawanichi engineer : But sir the plane it's already finish.
Top command : !!!
自分が好きなのはN1K2「紫電改」です、あとH8K「二式大艇」も好きです。
These history videos are awesome! It's cool to learn about the vehicles you play
Hearing mega nerds going above and beyond building cool things civilian or military is always amazing. This made the N1K1 make sense on why its much better as a float plane compared to the A6M2-N. Now I'm having trouble with choosing my second favorite ww2 Japanese Aircraft line. #1 is the A6M Zero, #2 is now a toss up between the Ki44 line and the N1K1/2 line.
Speaking of Japanese sea patrol planes, we still have a few of them for Post-War Japan that aren't in game yet like the Kawasaki P2-J Neptune or the ShinMeiwa ones.
N1K2-J "Shiden-Kai" is my favorite Imperial Japanese aircraft, my second favorite is Nakajima Kikka
N1K2-Ja is an excellent plane in WT. Good handling, good speed & very agile. Can carry bombs too. Useful in ground rb.
What rank is it?
@@dinnersam2121 4, 6.0 BR
anyone else see therussianbadgers p36 fly by at 2:25
me too
Please add E16A Zuiun soon. Japan's most beloved seaplane is the E16A. In Japan, there is an event called Zuiunsai, and there was also an interesting game event where E16A is worshiped as a religion.
Zuiun is god
Ah, my good ol' KanColle days are returning again
瑞雲を崇めよ...瑞雲を信じれば幸せになれます。
My favourite aircraft by Kawanishi was never put to metal, but the KX-03 was a 500 ton flying boat proposal that had 18 engines, 6 of which would have been jets.
As a Kawanishi, I'm super happy to see these kind of video! Amazing job!
Love the H8K its so fast for its size :)
Love IJN Flying boats. B24s bagged a couple. Beautiful dog fight to behold certainty.
Kawanishi: Yo, i built this cool airplane for you! :) Japanese government: Who asked?
I cant live without war thunder and this channel! You guys are the best!
If only these things have lower BR and not have to deal with late war super props
Some of them are justified though. Some Japanese fighters can run circles around enemies.
@@tetraxis3011
every single enemies japanese fight can outrun them in their own BR except 2.7-3.7
They can run circles around japanese fighter vertically
I have the J6K1! That things a beast, tons of firepower and decent maneuverability.
Subarashii! Kawanishi developed many of my all-time favorite WWII aircraft. Outstanding planes from an exceptional company.
By the way, aren't we still missing automatic flap systems for aircraft in War Thunder? Such as for Kawanishi's N1K2-J? These systems are looooooooong overdue in War Thunder, if so.
They are modeled! only the ja models have the mercury switch though.
Man i would love to play the N1Ks if only they weren't totally over BR like 99% of the entire japanese tech tree :|
Name a over br plane pls. The only ones that are are the Ki something bcz it is a beast of turnfighter so gayjin had to kill it in order to allow nations as sweden with only boomnzoom planes to be playable
@@Arthur_Neves The fact that you called them "Ki something" tells me already alot about your game knowledge, but if you really want to know i can tell you starting with all the A6M5s if not literally the entire Zero line, all the Ki-61s armed with 20mm, the N1K2s, the J7W1, the Ki-84 Hei, if we wanna mention jets i can name you all the R2Y2s or the KI-200.
I'll end it here otherwhise i would have to name you even some of those sad bombers and heavy fighters.
@@Arthur_Neves j7w1 it is basically a 262 but even more obese
The only good thing about it are the 4 30s in the nose
It’s slow it’s heavy climb is ok/bad for it’s br
And could easily be beat by German props that are at sub 4.0
Because of how slow and how poorly it turns
If people don’t want to fight you they don’t have to
They can just fly away from you or just go up
@@TinyBearTim oh really? I mean, personally I suffer a lot being absolutely banged by it on my shitty a21 trying to go any faster than 400km and climb more than 10 meters
@@Atlas_M and also personally I dont think you have the possibility of calling a jet trash when it didnt even existed
Nihon planes on BR 4.7~6.0 are amazing mostly because by that time they finally ditch the harmless 7.62mm machineguns.
Of course N1K2-J, the plane of the IJNAS ace pilots!
I just love the fact that you make the soviet ww2 tanks and planes so much better then they actually were in real life, and you don't even try to hide it. You can't just deny the fact that the soviets did have worthless vehicles, but why do you make them better? Isn't this game supposed to be realistic? And why do you put more effort to your channel instead of your own game?
I wish I could get the J6K on xbox but at the same time I'd be afraid of ending up with another mega-overtiered plane
N1K2, one of the best fighter during WW2 as well, it also help there was an elite squadron that use the aircraft (343rd airgroup)
It would be good if it actually fought anything, the stayed close to Tokyo and didn’t do much so no it’s not one of the best fighters in ww2
@@papaslimjim510 Oh but it is, as i said it was used by 343rd airgroup, which use the N1K2 to fight US air raid on Kobe and Kure area fighting F6F and F4U, it used to break through US fighter screen to give way for Kamikaze aircraft, and of course the B-29 interception.
US also test the aircraft and they know the Homare engine is a beast when given good fuel, and one of the ex F6F Hellcat pilot, Marshal Beebe says N1K is a very good aircraft comparable to F6F.
@@papaslimjim510 the 343rd's airfield was in Matsuyama, it's half Japan away from Tokyo, you should really read "Genda's blade: japan's squadron of aces: 343 kokutai"
@@papaslimjim510 it did fought a lot of the USN fighter during March 1945 when it was stationed in Kyushu. Later on they didn't really have enough planes to do much. It certainly was the best plane the IJN could offer
I LOVE JAPANESE!!!!!! i do hope that when the f 15 gets added that the f-15j does too in the same update. :) vid is awesome war thunder rules. Q: how many a6 and a7 variants were there that actually got produced?
Despite how painful the gun nerf is. The guys who is talking in the video makes my day great.
Would it be too much to ask to allow all vehicles to be accessible on the test range? Not just premiums, those already earned, and the ones being researched?
Plz add the ki48 and the. G3m
Will the mig 23BN get countermeasures
7:15 flabbergasted? Finally somebody used that word
Loved the background music
A superb job, Sir. From Japan.
There's some misinformation here.
5:45 The "Jinpu" is not related to the float plane "Kyofu". Jinpu was a completely new land based interceptor developed on request from the IJN as a contestor of the 17th Land based fighter project.
It initially rolled out as J3K1 with a Mitsubishi engine which turned out to be under powered, and so some redevelopment happened to fit a more powerful Nakajima engine.
By the time work was even started, the land based fighter derivation of Kyofu (i.e. the N1K) was well underway and was proving to be on schedule so the Jinpu was cancelled.
Jinpu was later proposed as an interceptor for later fighter requirements with increased payload and a new engine. The final derivation of Jinpu was the J6K which competed for a high altitude fighter requirement, but lost to the competition and never came to be.
Also, the N1K1-J Shiden and the improved N1K2 were both proposed by Kawanishi to the Navy before being requested to do so, but the Navy never told off the engineers to work on existing aircraft. They were simply worried about the lack of experience in development of land based fighters in Kawanishi, so they held several meetings with them to assess their proposals. In the end, they gave the project a go sign.
Additionally, contrary to the belief that the N1K2-J is just a low wing modification of the N1K1-J, major redesigns to the fuselage, and wing interior meant that it almost became a different aircraft. The fuselage was narrower to optimize for the new Nakajima engine, tail sections were redesigned and whilst the wing shape and planform stayed the same, the wing structure was redesigned to accommodate two 20mm cannons internally and fit the new shorter landing gear.
oh hey, at 2:25 you can see therussianbadger's special logo on the P-36
KI series planes were made of army so IJA not for IJN. Zero, Reppu, Gekko , Reiden, Tenrai. They were planes for Navy, sure some were designed by Kawanishi but they were not KI series.
He sounds so disappointed that the Japanese lost the war.
been having a issue for a while and i cant figure it out. was flying my zero for 15mins then all of a sudden it pitches up full lock and i couldnt even control it. lucky i was 8km in the air to try and figure it out but i unbinded my X and Y keys and it still kept pulling. i switched to sim and changed the pitch and still kept going up. this has happened to me 3 times and there is nothing about it.
The h8k2 of course
day 1 of asking: Can i see one of those splendid never-of-a-lifetime target destroyed 50x?
2:29 it shows therussianbadger's plane.
Seems that Kawanishi guys had a great time during the war, even with American bombers over their heads
Kawanishi engineers: Fck it we ball
I guess for me, ir has to be the 'Emily'. What a beast of a flying boat.
Veri Honurabu, NO SHAMFUR DISPRAY!!!!!!
Can we get Hawker next? Since their aircraft are available at all teirs for UK short rank 5 aswell as having some aircraft be included in other nations
Pretty good pronunciation, I must say!
I remember the first time I got a H6k it was at the same time as my friend and we flew them out together and 5min in to the arcade battle we were both killed in one pass by a bf109 I never played it again
J6K1, definitely ^^
This guy sounds more depressed every episode
Nice subject 👏🏻
2式大型飛行艇が好きです。
Do some nakajima planes
Can you do one about mitsubishi
水上戦闘機・強風で敵機と空中戦をしたパイロットはいたのだろうか。
I dig those skins
H8K love from me ❤️
Japanese military: We need you to mak. .
Kawasaki: Here's something we believe you need
Japanese military: but this isn't what we asked fo..
Kawasaki: your get this sht, it's going to be the best sht in the world and your going to like it
Japanese military: Yes boss
Can we have the j7w2
yes
Fun fact: this plane has never been shot down in infantry combat
Nice
Cool
Does anyone know the name of the music in the video?
add Swedish Boat pls
Hey ❤
There's no piston-engined fighter in WT I'd rather fly than a J6K1.
Where is the original commenter of war thunder?
Plz respond
Why are German planes fighting Japanese planes
I'd like N1K2 more if it wasn't overtiered into oblivion...
War thunder something wrong with the ranking season 1 one for the second one for army it won’t let me take part of it even though I took part and it won’t let me play
FLOATPLANE=水上飛機
FLYING BOAT=飛艇
KI-84
Kawanishi NERDS
Idea for a new premium tank. TR-85M1 The Bison.
The Romanian tank.
Among many other models and variations of it. Ex: TR-77 or TR-85-800
Гидроавианосцы Японии переделанные потом в лёгкие авианосцы
Problem it too high br lower it pls
Still waiting for kamikaze aircrafts
Those would be so cool
It would be fun to deploy ooka from japanese heavy bomber
I want the Ki-115
It wasn't even a suicide weapon, just so bad that nobody was actually expected to survive an attack with it. It was cheap, underpowered and awfully produced, meant to carry an 800kg bomb. American pilots tested it after the war and said it was awful to fly, and underpowered, even without the bomb.
Any aircraft can be a kamikaze aircraft if you fly it bad enough
You have them in every ground rb match... all the dude, who can't pull up on time, or don't even try to..
Revenge kills are more important for them
Hi
Where is this savage empire now?Where?GONE ,FINISHED, 👌👌👌
👍
KAWANISHI=川西
Too bad you fucked up the japanese 20mm we it was aids in squadron battles watching bombers eat every bullet
11 Min
Merica is better than Japanese aircraft in my opinion
Hello Gaijin, will you ever offer P51D10 for ps4 players ?😢
excellent knowledge of the moronic top down planning which crippled genius Japanese designers even as Jiro Horikoshi who would have given them the A7M probably changing history. Today Shin Meiwa the successor to Kawanishi is just another dumbed down corporation: They don't even understand that their own US2 is by far the best flying boat in the world and there would be urgent need to build a CIVILIAN VERSION to service the hundreds of isolated and dying Japanese islands. Horrific incompetence is the only short summary for Japanese aviation today.
"Madlads" "Blokes" this was written by an Englishman or what? lol
Please add sukhoi su 47 berkut to the game
They haven't even added the Su-27 yet. Going to need to give it a minute.
Dislike + Unsub until the evil snail makes the game playable
