The Ki-10 was the last production biplane fighter used by the
Japanese Army. It was used extensively in the Chinese theatre in the
late 1930's, but had been relegated to training and secondary duties by
1941. In 1942, a number were pressed into patrol duties around the home
islands and in China. Some 300 of the -I were built. It's Allied
codename was "Perry".
The Ki-10 had a crew of one and used 28.5 gallons of aviation gas at routine usage.

Design Notes
The historical wing area of 215 sf has been used. Design speed was
263 mph. The weight, cost and HPs of the wings and chassis were
doubled, primarily to increase weight, which still had to be increased
8% to match historical.
3.5 chassis spaces are ignored and treated as simple empty space.
Variants
The Ki-10-II was slightly improved (no change in game terms), with 280
being built starting in
July 1937.
