Japan's Nakajima Ki-84 Hayate (Gale), "Frank" fighter updated

The Japanese Imperial Army did field some very excellent aircraft towards the end of the war, but it was a case of too little too late. The Nakajima Ki-84 was such an aircraft. It had excellent potential to shoot down the B-29 Superfortresses that were burning Japan to the ground, but quality issues and lack of trained pilots plagued the Ki-84 from realizing its full potential.
I've added some additional information for it on my web site.
