The Nagasaki J1W7 is a military fighter plane featured in Grand Theft Auto Online

Grand Theft Auto Online
It takes physical cues from the Kyushu J7W1 "Shinden" mostly all over the body, while copying the same canopy as a Dornier Do 335 "Pfeil." However, it has the same three blade prop as a Curtiss XP-55 "Ascender."

It also has the same canards as a Saab JAS-39 "Gripen."

One thing to note about this plane is that it can be converted into a jet fighter, making it also based off of the J7W2 "Shinden" which is the jet engined variant of the J7W1 "Shinden." However, the J7W2 was never built.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The J7W1 has an decent top speed, with great maneuverability, due to its canard configuration and overall light weight fuselage. However, due to the radial engine being placed in the back of the plane, it is susceptible to being damaged extremely easily, and if hit with a more than one missile will rip the prop loose, or simply destroy the engine.

However, when the Radial is swapped out for a turbofan engine, the plane is much faster in a straight line, due to the plane's aerodynamic configuration. However, the jet engine conversion comes with the price of maneuverability, which can be remedied by upgrading the handling, or by lowering the landing gear. The turbo fan conversion also comes with a powerful airbrake that rises when the plane is slowing down or when the pilot kills the throttle in an attempt to force an enemy plane to overshoot.

Armament wise, the plane comes with four nose mounted machine guns that can be swapped out for four either four explosive machine guns or four thirty millimeter autocannons with limited ammo. It also comes with a bomb bay that can drop twenty five high explosive bombs.
