The Ki-108 was an offshoot of the Ki-102 heavy fighter. Designed to be a single-seat fighter used for high altitude interception of American four-engined bombers like the B-29 with a pressurized cabin and high altitude performance. Four proto-type aircraft were built but the war ended before they could be put into operational service.
