Japan's Kawanishi N1K Shiden (Violent Lightning) fighter added

The Japanese in World War II had some really excellent designs for fighter planes. The most famous of all was the Zero which dominated the skies of the Pacific in the early months of World War II. Towards the end of the war a new design, based on a floatplane, the Kawanishi N1K Shiden was produced. It was a highly capable fighter in the hands of a good pilot. At this stage in the war most of the good pilots were already gone. Also there were production quality issues that plagued the N1K.
