In the skies above the Pacific and Southeast Asian theatres of World War II, few Imperial Japanese Army Air Force units earned a more fearsome reputation than the 64th Sentai — a fighter group that carved its legacy in combat against Allied forces across Burma, China, and the Pacific. 64 Sentai presents a meticulous and authoritative account of this elite Japanese fighter regiment, chronicling its operational history, aircraft markings, unit organisation, and the aces who flew under its banner. Richly illustrated with detailed colour profiles, technical diagrams, and archival photography, this volume instructs enthusiasts and historians alike on the precise camouflage schemes and insignia that distinguished the 64th Sentai's Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusas in theatre. Part of Kagero's respected Miniatury Lotnicze (Aviation Miniatures) series, this compact but densely informative reference work demonstrates Krzysztof Janowicz's command of Japanese aviation history, presenting scholarly rigour alongside the visual detail demanded by serious scale modellers and warbird aficionados. The series has long been celebrated for bridging the gap between academic military history and the modelling community, and this instalment is no exception — leaving the reader to wonder just how many untold stories of aerial combat still wait to be uncovered from the archives of the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force.
