Kawanishi K-2
Kawanishi Aircraft · Aerobatic · Japan · Interwar (1919–1938)
The sole Kawanishi K-2 was the first specialized Japanese racing aircraft. The advanced, single-seat low-wing monoplane's first flight was in the late summer of 1921. It had a promisingly high maximum speed but a career limited by numerous minor accidents produced no victories or records.
