By Jamie Richards (aka "Fritigern")

A Kawasaki Ki-61-IIb Hein "Tony" assigned to the 244th Sentai of the 2nd Chutai, based in the Tokyo Defence Area in 1945 attempting to intercept high-flying B-29s. The tail markings are not Japanese characters, but a stylized rendering of the arabic "244". The Hinomarus superimposed on white bands on the wings and fuselage signify that this fighter is assigned to the "Defence of the Homeland". 

This Ki-61 "Tony" replaces Bf109G-6 in EAW.  The 3-D wireframe of this airplane is actually from Microprose's "1942: Pacific Air War".

For use with Charles Gunst's ECA (Enemy Coast Ahead) Panel.
To install, just unzip the *.TPC and *.3DZ files into your EAW directory.

SPECIAL NOTE: Within this ZIP file is contained another ZIP file called TONYIIB-VER2.ZIP, which contains a second version of the same paint scheme.  This second version is slightly more historically accurate in that the propellor hub is a cooler, darker red.  However, if you have a 3DFX video card (as I do), this second version may not work properly in some situations -- the propellor hub is rendered in neon colours sometimes, depending on which plane you are flying (or, more technically, what colour palette is being used by the cockpit of your plane).  So, if you have a TNT card, you may prefer the second version.  If you don't understand this, don't worry -- just ignore the TONYIIB-VER2.ZIP file and forget you read this note!
