The Nate was the prime fighter plane of the Japanese Army when they attacked the Soviet Union in 1939. The plane was able to dominate the skies over the Russian Far East, easily defeating the Soviet biplane and monoplane fighters that rose to challenge them. 'Nates' were easily recognisable due to their fixed landing gear and wide wings, which made them highly manoeuvrable. Its primary disadvantage was that it could be easily destroyed with only a few hits.
