Thread: Card Request for Yokosuka K5Y1 Willow

    Default Card Request for Yokosuka K5Y1 Willow

    I have acquired a Yokosuka K5Y1 Willow trainer in it's orange coloration for use in Kamikazes vs US picket duty Destroyer scenarios. I understandably couldn't find much information in the forums and files in regards to any cards created or possible game stats for this Japanese trainer. Would anyone be interested in coming up with the possible game stats and card for this plane? I can provide pictures, if needed. Thanks in advance.

    I've never done one. I didn't even have a folder for Yokosuka planes?

    The wheeled, or pontooned, version?

    PS: Speed could be "C(z)".

    Close enough. The one I have doesn't have a red tail. It's solid orange.

    Stats:
    Deck: V(Z); Guns: A/A; A/A; Hits: 14; Ceiling: 7; Climb: 9; F base; HR: 1,2,3

    I assume as a Kamikaze, the rear cockpit would be empty, so no rear guns for them.

    Thanks for the stats, Karl. And, yep, Kamikaze duty.

    So, not a Kamakazi version...

    The card is perfect. I'll be able to use it in other scenarios aside from kamikaze duty. Thanks Mike and Karl!
    I have a couple more planes inbound that I'll be bothering you for stats and cards, including a few Ki-51 Sonias. I'll post those requests as soon as I receive them and get them built.

    Pretty sure the Sonia has been posted already, but here it is anyway:
    Deck: I* (no second dive or divebombing cards) Guns: A(B)/A A/A hits: 16 Ceiling: 9 Climb: 6 Base: F HR: 3
    Late production planes swapped out the 7.7mm wing MGs for 12.7mm.

    Thanks Karl, I located the Ki-51 Sonia stats in the "New planes for the V2 list" thread. I have now bookmarked that thread for future reference. Once I have the planes built and pictures taken, I will start a new thread dedicated to the Ki-51 cards and stats.
