Album info
This litttle Dio is situated in the south-east Pacific Theatre.
It shows a machine of the 62nd Sentai - 3rd Chutai.
A japanese "heavy" Bomber type Nakajima Ki.49 Donryu (Storm Dragon).

here is a short but informative portrait of the type.

An interested fighter Pilot take a critical look at the mechanics work, who recently fixed it with a new one.
Thats the story 🙂
