The Shiden Kai was created toward the end of the Pacific War to intercept American aircraft attacking the Japanese mainland.

      The Shiden, originally based on the Gyokukaze floatplane, was further improved. The refined airframe, combined with the 2,000-horsepower Homare engine, resulted in a masterpiece fighter with a well-balanced performance profile.
