    It's a "Mickey Ship", that's a radome in the place of the ball turret.

    It was not that rare...some 3,000 being produced. But, the engine was maintenance intensive, which did not work out to well in the Pacific, where spare parts supply was minimal at best & non-existent at worst. Whhich led to many Ki-61s being grounded for want of engine parts.
