Japan's Nakajima Ki-49 Donryu (storm dragon) bomber added

The Japanese wanted a bomber to replace the Ki-21 "Sally" bombers, and the Nakajima Ki-49 Donryu was the design chosen. Though it wasn't a very advanced design it did try to protect the crew with armor and self sealing fuel tanks. Even with those, crews didn't care for the Ki-49 as they felt it was difficult to fly.
I've added a new page with specifications and photos of the Ki-49.
