Kawanishi N1k1-J Kyofu (nicknamed Rex)

Oh God...
I finally managed to make a plane that can land on water!
(Yeah, the floats are terrible, but still...)
Originally, I wanted to build Porco’s plane from Porco Rosso (it's so beautiful),
but there isn’t much information available about it (like blueprints and general specs), and I didn’t have much time either.

General Specifications:

Length: 8.885 meters

Wingspan: 12 meters

Height: 4.6 meters

Engine power: 1460 hp (prototype and early model)

Engine RPM: 2400

Turn time at 6000 meters: 19 seconds

Max speed: 479 km/h

Speed limit: 600 km/h

Crew: 1 (Pilot)

Currently, parts like the flaps and the cockpit aren't fully completed,
but fortunately, they don’t affect the aircraft’s ability to take off or land on water.
I’ll fix them in the next upload.
