The Nakajima Ki-27 (九七式戦闘機, Kyūnana-shiki sentōki), also known as Type 97 Fighter, was a monoplane fighter used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Service up until 1940, which was developed to replace the Kawasaki Ki-10, the Army’s last biplane fighter. Its Allied reporting name was “Nate”, although it was called “Abdul” in the China Burma India theater by many post-war sources.
