However, its fighting performance proved poor, leading to a redesign as a land-based reconnaissance aircraft (J1N1-R). As Japan faced increasing U.S. bombing raids, the J1N1-R was modified in 1943 with upward-firing guns to counter bombers. Two such modified aircraft successfully shot down two B-17s, prompting the Japanese Navy to retrofit more J1N1-Rs with these oblique guns, marking the Gekko’s transition into an effective night fighter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore to read about the KIT \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.scalemates.com\/fr\/kits\/tamiya-61093-nakajima-j1n1-sa-night-fighter-gekko-type-11--133954\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e, thanks to scalemates, a Belgian Scale modeling database\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TAMIYA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52343351771482,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/3015\/9446\/files\/B95924C0-D6DB-4219-B012-45E6A5441CFC_1_102_o.jpg?v=1759584747","url":"https:\/\/aviation.brussels\/products\/maquette-a-monter-nakajima-j1n1-sa-night-fighter-gekko-type-11-kou-irving-tamiya-n-61093-1-48-like-new-inside-unopened","provider":"aviation.brussels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
