Sources for my updates: Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum has an authoritative writeup at http://www.nasm.si.edu/research/aero/aircraft/nakairving.htm.

The following website has some information of dubious value (Mentions the first kills as B-24s, not B-17s) http://www.csd.uwo.ca/~pettypi/elevon/baugher_other/j1n1s.html

A book was written by one survivor of the first J1N1C KAI kill of two b-17's. 43rd Bomb Group gunner M/Sgt Gordon Manuel's book "70,000 to one" documents his survival story on Rabaul. http://www.tomfolio.com/bookdetailsgg.asp?b=19164&m=441

With 54 recon models built prior to the fighter design, it is innacurate to introduce this solely as a night fighter. -Mak Thorpe 23:23, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
