Used mainly by Da-Nippon Teikoku Rikugun K\u014dk\u016b Hombu, the aerial component of the Japanese imperial army, was used operationally since the second Sino-Japanese war, ending his operational career as a bomb plane in the suicide bomb missions of the final phase of the Second World War. From the mid -thirties, Japan decided to implement an expansion and modernization program of its military aeronautics based on aircraft entirely designed and made at home. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4In this context, in May 1936, the imperial army issued a specific for the supply of a new light bomber that would replace the KI-3 previous ones, then contact the Mitsubishi and the Kawasaki K\u014dk\u016bki K\u014dgy\u014d KK with the request for the Construction of two prototypes, each by December 1936. The required characteristics included a maximum speed of 400 km\/h at 3 000 m, an operational fee between 2 000 m and 4 000 meters, the possibility of climbing 3 000 m, Within eight minutes and an engine to be chosen between the Mitsubishi Ha-6, an 850 HP radial (634 kW), an 825 HP Nakajima Ha-5 radial (615 kW) and a Kawasaki Ha-9-IB, a 12-cylinder A V 850 HP liquid V -cooled (634 kW), all for a weight with a weight not exceeding 3 300 kg. The armament requested consisted of a load of 300 kg of bombs, which can be raised to a maximum of 450 kg in case of need, released on the lens beaten with an angle of 60 \u00b0 and, as a defense, a machine gun in hunting and a rear one branded.

Originally designed with a bicycle landing trolley with the retractable front elements, the tests performed in the wind tunnel indicated that speed gain was minimal due to the overall weight of the mechanism and, also due to the constructive complexity, it was preferred to opt for A traditional fixed trolley solution. Although the aircraft had shown during the initial flights to be equipped with good characteristics, a second prototype was still prepared, equipped with a Nakajima Ha-5 and tested in the same period. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Even if late and albeit overweight results, both prototypes managed to achieve or overcome any other requirement. The second prototype managed to reach a maximum speed of 423 km\/h to 4 000 m of quota, convincing the military authorities to issue a service order for a first lot of 16 specimens delivered in January 1938. The further assessments confirmed the qualities of the aircraft e The imperial army assigned the official designation long Of Light bomber for the type 97 army and issued the definitive order of production in series that began in the following March. The KI-30 was started production with a enhanced engine (which made it possible to exceed the parameters of the specification) and the first lot of 16 machines was sent to war already in 1938, in China. On that occasion he was asserted against a fierce opposition but not entirely up to the situation. Despite in China, it had been almost impregnable, when the war against the Anglo-Americans broke out in 1941, this aircraft proved soon and vulnerable, so much so that the production interrupted after 704 aircraft already at the end of that year. The remaining machines were gradually passed to second -line tasks. It was a metallic single -side, with a fixed but well -cooked landing trolley, a cockpit equipped with large windows and a good level of autonomy guaranteed by about 500 liters of fuel. The armament was similar to that of the English Fairey Battle, to which this aircraft was inspired by operational needs: a single weapon of small caliber was present in an offensive position (in one wing) while another was on the back, in defensive function . 400 kilos of bombs could be transported internally, but the aircraft was not a beaten bomber or a plane for conventional attacks. Japan [ change | Modifica Wikitesto ] The KI-30 was used in combat by summer 1938, in the operations during the second Sino-Japanese war, being effective also because it is supported in its bombing missions from escort hunting squadrons. He continued to be successfully employed until the outbreak of the Pacific war where he was intensely used in operations on the Philippines. However, when they began to clash directly with the Anglo-American hunts in 1941, the KI-30 began to undergo heavy losses, so much so that the production interrupted after 704 aircraft already at the end of that year. The surviving specimens were gradually assigned to second -line tasks. From the end of 1942 they were assigned to flight schools and used as trainers. In the last stages of the conflict, many specimens were used for suicide bomber attacks. Thailand [ change | Modifica Wikitesto ] From the late 1940, the Ki-30 entered service with the Thai Kongthap Akat Thai, engaged in the first fights in January 1941 against the French Arm\u00e9e de l’Air in the skies of the then French Indochine in the context of the Franco-Thai war. In 1942 a further supply of Ki-30 was delivered by Japan.
