I suggest:

Illustrated Warplane History - The X-Planes of Imperial Japanese Army & Navy, 1924-45.

ISBN 4-7663-3292-X. It is a Green Arrow publication. Copyright Shigeru Nohara

You might try Hobby Link Japan.

Yes, it's in Japanese, but there are a lot of drawings and a lot of photos.

If all goes well, the second volume should appear in fall/winter of 2013 or at the latest, sometime in 2014.

Cheers,

Ed

I'm already a bit skeptical of this book. The Tornado was not simply a Fi-103 with floats on it. In fact, that rendition of the Tornado isn't even close to the reality generally accepted. The attached image of a model of the Tornado is. Big difference. ;D

Hello guys,
Excuse me, but I was lucky to get the volume 3 of the "Encyclopedia of Japanese Aircraft...", widely used, of course. And I need a picture of the top of the cardboard box. To make a cover similar to the original.
Can you help me?
thanks
