I honestly don’t understand why you push Turkish TT, on a Japanese thread, as there is no link whatsoever.
But yeah anyway Turkish TT is full of copypaste from rank 1 to Rank 8
Check again ^^"
Thats quite a lot of USSR/Japanese vehicles, they need to do a lot more “prototype/concept” vehicles for Britain and esp Fr*nce, there are some really cool designs - i.e the TR2!
Or Nord-1500 Griffon II ^^"
(Would be fun with 2x Magic-1 and 2x30mm Defa ^^")
from the looks of things, the air intakes on the Shinden is likely big enough to feed a jet engine…
R2Y2 is another case where Gaijin didn’t understand the assignment, giving us the three conceptual designs for Ne-30 equipped R2Y2 with Ne-330 engines and fictional cannons that at this stage weren’t even planned.
The Ne-330 essentially removed the need for the fuselage mounted engine concepts, so V2 and V3 are unnecessary solutions to a problem that’s already been solved. But I’m not too familiar with the armament, so I can’t comment on how accurate they got that.
But even then, at least R2Y2 was a real design. J7W2/3 are post war speculation with no real basis to it. That’s like suggesting a prop driven Kikka, the parts might exist, but that doesn’t change the fact that there was never such a design.
From what I’ve seen Ki 162 is just speculation based on very limited info of Japan being interested in a He-162 like fighter. But if you have more sources on it and it is a real project, then that’d be great.

The J7W1 by the creators of the aicraft own words was that it was designed with the jet engine in mind from the very start, they just have not obtained the jet engine(also the engines was half done). Since they had no engine how exactly where they gonna plan for it into their design? However the Mitsubishi Ha-43 engine sucks in air and has a very jet-like effect, if the air intakes an feed that then a jet engine is not unfeasable. I honestly believe they do not need to do much to make it fit, unless the engine is to fat.
Yeah no finding anything on this mystery is even harder, my best bet is it would have been licence-built 1:1 copy. The Japanese forum may have something but I have no clue where to even look it up on that front…

R2Y2 existed on paper same as the F-16AJ
YF-16A adopted this
Do you have the proper blueprint? Only sources people have shown is from a book full of fakes.
after that unless u want classified stuff (I do not possess such material) ur gunna have to ask someone else
and about the R2Y2’s, I dont have it on my but i’m aware the japanese aerobatic museam has it

The R2 one is the most interesting if you can snag it up so we can take a look it would be nice. :D

Still trying to figure that out of your sources,…
Because none are sources Gaijin will take account, and all photos we do have are from J7W1…
Ho Ri Production aswell
The J7W2 will fill a big gap in the Japanese TT so it is somewhat likely that it will be added in the future
Japanese wikipedia it links you to the booklet number code, the persons words is from the former deputy chief of the project.
Easiest way to get it translation is probably the wikipedia page, if you have browser translation.
I dunno how much more official it can get than former deputy chief and his team, other than the Kyushu company had the plans drawn up and ready. (which they did not since all engines were heading to the Karyu project)
Unfortunately I’ll have to travel across the world for that (´・ω・｀)
