1) Nakajima Ki-27 "Nate"

2) Nakajima Ki-43 "Oscar"

3) Mitsubishi A5M "Claude"

4) Mitsubishi A6M "Zeke"

Well it would have to be the Ki 27 for the J.A.A.F. and the A5M Claude for the J.N.A.F.. Between the two might have to go with more Nates being involved in the conflict.

Correct on the "Nate". These battles---oops, I meant "incidents"----were exclusively a Japanese Army affair.

Yep. However longer service in this role was a factor as the JU-88G and HE-219 were certainly better warbirds.
