This page is about the Japanese fighter Ki-44-II otsu. For other uses, see Ki-44 (Family). |
Description
The Ki-44-II otsu Shoki is a premium rank II Japanese fighter
with a battle rating of 3.0 (AB/RB) and 2.3 (SB). It was introduced in Update 1.55 "Royal Armour".
General info
Flight performance
Describe how the aircraft behaves in the air. Speed, manoeuvrability, acceleration and allowable loads - these are the most important characteristics of the vehicle.

Survivability and armour
Examine the survivability of the aircraft. Note how vulnerable the structure is and how secure the pilot is, whether the fuel tanks are armoured, etc. Describe the armour, if there is any, and also mention the vulnerability of other critical aircraft systems.
Armaments
Offensive armament
The Ki-44-II otsu is armed with:
- 2 x 40 mm Ho-301 cannons, wing-mounted (10 rpg = 20 total)
- 2 x 12.7 mm Ho-103 machine guns, nose-mounted (250 rpg = 500 total)
The twin Ho-103 machine guns are identical in performance to most other Japanese aircraft carrying this type. The air targets belt is recommended in most situations as it carries a great balance of armour piercing and incendiary components along with tracer rounds. The twin Ho-301 auto-cannons are devastating to anything which it hits, making short work of most aircraft. The unfortunate drawback with these cannons is that they utilise very low-velocity rounds and will need a large lead on anything being attacked, with a larger lead time the further out the target is.
Suspended armament
The Ki-44-II otsu can be outfitted with the following ordnance:
- Without load
- 2 x 50 kg Army Type 94 GPHE bombs (100 kg total)
- 2 x 100 kg Army Type 94 GPHE bombs (200 kg total)
Usage in battles
Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons
Pros:
- Powerful armament
- Highest top speed of its rank
- Extremely good acceleration
- Good climb rate
Cons:
- Fires will not go out
- Fragile
- Engine easily damaged
- Extremely low velocity 40 mm cannons
- Only 20 rounds for the 40 mm cannons
- 40 mm cannons are able to fire its entire supply of ammo in about 1 second
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main
template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>
, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />
. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===
, also if applicable).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
