九三式单发轻爆击机 / Kyūsan-shiki tankei bakugekiki / Army light bomber, Type 93

Brief history:
Rikugun Koku Hombu from the beginning of the thirties sought to modernize and thereby improve the efficiency of your air force bomber. The armament included heavy bomber The Mitsubishi Ki-1, medium bomber the Mitsubishi Ki-2, logically, being asked also a light bomber, which had to fulfil as far as possible tactical tasks.

The development was entrusted to the factory Kawasaki Kokuki Kabushiki Kaisha, there was already, on its own initiative developed the project of the German designer dr. Richard Vogta, which assisted already at that time an experienced engineer Takeo Doi.
The prototype with the designation of the KDA-6, fully based on their previous structures, which arose at the turn of the twenties and thirties. The main characters were robusnost and as with all single-engine constructions of the Kawasaki was used inline engine, which propagátorm and a supporter of the factory Kawasaki was.

After tests in 1933 was a bomber accepted into the arms as "light army bomber type 93" and in the newly established system of labelling Kitai got the designations Ki-3.
Production of the Ki-3 are sold all from the January, 1934, and lasted less than fifteen months and already one year after the completion of the production, therefore, in the year of 1936 is considered to be outdated, it served, however, in the chinese battlefield in the first line until 1938.

The bomber showed a fairly decent flight characteristics, but undermined it rather the fault of the engine, namely, his compressor, it was also the main cause why this Type of 93-1 nedoznal great popularity, both in flying and ground personnel. In the service was replaced by the modern types of Mitsubishi Ki-30 Ann Type 97 and Kawasaki Ki-32 Mary Type 98.
