Description: Offered by Over The Blue Horizon and obtained in Tokyo is a venerable publication from the well-regarded Famous Airplanes of the World Series: Volume 65, "ARMY TYPE 1 FIGHTER HAYABUSA" better known in the West as the Nakajima Ki-43 OSCAR. This volume covers the exceptionally maneuverable workhorse of the Japanese Army Air Force which flew throughout the war. Loaded with lots of great b/w photographs, line drawings, and color profiles of this exceptional aircraft, the FAOW series began publication in the late 1960s and are highly illustrated monographs focusing on a specific aircraft or family of aircraft. Text is in Japanese, but the photographs, scale line drawings, cut-away drawings, cockpit diagrams, close-up detail drawings and profiles help transcend the written word and have appealed to aircraft researchers and advanced military hobbyists to this day. The formats and covers have slightly changed over the years. Originally, the FAOW covers were White and beginning in 1971, changed to Blue. In 1979, the FAOW covers changed to a Chart or Graph-paper background, and then in 1986, changed to the current Black Cover series.
