キ2-I 一型九三式双发轻爆击机 - Ichi gata Kyu san-shiki sokei bakugekiki - Army Type 93-1 Twin-engined Light Bomber (Ki-2-I)
Allied Code Name: "Luise"


In February 1931, a Swedish-built Junkers K 37 aircraft had been purchased by private funds and donated to the Army in early 1932 as Aikuko (patriotic gift) No.1, this being the first of many such privately donated Aikuko machines. This machine subsequently seeing combat service in Manchuria.
In close association with the Army Type 93 Heavy Bomber, the Army was interested in devloping a twin-engined light bomber that was also based upon the qualities observed in the imported Swedish-built Junkers K 37. During the K 37's participation in combat in Manchuria in support of ground troops, its performance proved superior to that of the Mitsubishi Type 87 and the Kawasaki Type 88 Light Bombers. To replace these older aircraft, in September 1932 the Army asked Mitsubishi to redesign the K 37 to meet specific requirements for a new three-seat bomber that would become the Ki-2 in the new Kitai numbering system.
The design team remained that of the Ki-1 project, Nobushiro Nakata as chief designer, assisted by Kiro Honjo, HIsanojo Ozawa, and Jiro Tanaka. Capt. Komabayishi continued his liaison role for the Army. This new light bomber was to have a crew of three or four and be very manoeuvrable, especially in making tight turns. With one engine inoperative, it was to be able to maintain straight and level flight. Ease of handling in night landings and take-offs as well as daylight operations would be a strong consideration. Maximum speed should be 161 mph at 9,842 ft. Fuel capacity should allow for a 4 1/2 hr flight at 149 mph 9,842 ft with a 661 to 1,102 lb bomb load, or 6 hr at the same speed without a bomb load. Normal operating altitude would be from 6,561 ft to 9,842 ft, with a service ceiling of 22,965 ft. The engines were to be 450 hp Nakajima-built Jupiters. Two prototypes of the new bomber were asked for, the first to be completed by July 1933.

Brief history:

In February 1931 he was one of the Junkers K 37, built in Sweden, was purchased by the Japanese from private funds and was subsequently at the beginning of 1932, donated to the army air force as a Aikuko (patriotic gift) no. 1. This was the first of many such private donations, all carry the Aikuko. Junkerse To.37 then was seen during the martial years in Manchuria.

Army air force after believe flight characteristics have shown interest in light to medium bomber aircraft built on the basis of the bomber, the Junkers To.37. The new aircraft was to replace the light bombers Mitsubishi Type 87 and Kawasaki Type 88.

Rikugun Koku Hombu called in September 1932 with the specifications of the company Mitsubishi Jukogyo Kabushiki Kaisha. The work took a team of designers, who worked on a heavy bomber Mitsubishi Ki-1. He was a project manager Nobuširo Nakata and his assistants Kira Hondžem, Hisanodžo Ozawa and Jiro Tanaka. The functions of the liaison officer with the army air force was commissioned captain. Komabajiši.

Army air force requested the following characteristics: a maximum speed of 260 km/h at a height of 3 000 m, capacity fuel tanks should allow the years in the duration of 4.5 h at a speed of 240 km/h at a height of 3 000 m with a load of 300 to 500 kg of bombs. in the case of performance reconnaissance flight should be a flight endurance up to 6 hours. The operating height should range from 2 000 m to 3 000 m, altitude 7 000 m. the Engines should be Nakadžimu license-built engines Jupiter. The aircraft had to be capable of flight on one engine, and should also be agile.

The first take-off took place in the spring of 1933. It was a biplane with a fixed landing gear with kapotovanými wheels. This type was quite successful and popular in the battlefields in China, therefore, followed a modified version of the Mitsubishi Ki-2-II.
