A Japanese fighter used in World War Two. There were four major production variants. These are:
Ki-45 Kai-Ko (A): Initial escort fighter variant armed with 2x 12.7mm Ho-103 Machine Guns and 1x 20mm Ho-3 cannon.
Ki-45 Kai-Otsu (B): Kai-Kos fitted with a Type 94 37mm cannon instead of the Ho-3.
Ki-45 Kai-Hei (C): Anti-Shipping type armed with 1x Ho-3 and 1x 37mm Ho-201 cannons.
Ki-45 Kai-Tei (D): Night Fighter armed with 1x Ho-201 in nose as well as 2x 20mm Ho-5 cannons in a Schräge Musik mounting behind the pilot’s seat.
Used from 1942 until the war’s end, these aircraft proved somewhat successful, with over 1600 aircraft built. This makes the most produced Japanese twin-engined fighter of the war.

Get the Ki-45mug. A West German light tank destroyer prototype armed with a 90mm cannon, developed in the 1950s. It was designed to be small, mobile, and air-droppable, allowing them to easily ambush mass Soviet armoured attacks.
It’s available in World of Tanks and World of Tanks Blitz as a Tier 7 light tank, notable for poor armour but great mobility and stealth.

Get the Gruise Shipmug. A term used for large guns in War Thunder. Most players usually classify guns of this type as those with a caliber of 37mm and up, as these are extremely powerful against planes.

Get the Bonk Gunmug. The R3 T-20 FA-HS is a SPAA in War Thunder with a Battle Rating of 5.0 in realistic battles. It was (and for some, still is) hated for being at a lower battle rating, as when implimented into the game it was initially at the Battle Rating of 3.3. Due a fast-firing gun and a high top speed, it was easily able to flank and kill other tanks. It was progressively moved higher in BR to the location it currently sits at, solving the issue. The vehicle is referred to by some as the 'Lunchbox' or 'Cockroach' due to the shape of its cabin.

Get the R3 T-20 FA-HSmug. A US built fighter meant for export built shortly before world war 2. The aircraft was exported to China and the Dutch East Indies and proved to be one of the few aircraft capable of keeping up and turning with Japanese built A6Ms and Ki-43s. It can be found in War Thunder in the Chinese tech tree at rank I, with a battle rating of 2.7. With a excellent rate of climb, great agility, and decent firepower, it makes for a great bomber interceptor.
Interestingly, there is a popular misconception that the aircraft was known as ‘Demon’. This name was actually attached after the war. Since the aircraft was made for export, demonstrator aircraft would often be sent out to other countries for them to observe. They were often referred to as ‘Demon.’ in short in documents, which led to some believing it was being referred to as Demon.

Person 1: Hey, that guy just shot down my bomber!
Person 2: What sort of plane was it?
Person 1: It was one of those damn Curtiss-Wright CW-21s. How didn’t my FW-200’s guns kill it?
