The Lyrics
The Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusa (Peregrine Falcon) was codenamed Oscar by the US. Often confused with the Zero (Zeke), the Oscar killed more Allied aircraft than any other type and made lots of Japanese Aces. It was highly maneuverable and adequately armed for the time, but lacked armor and self-sealing tanks until the last year of the war. Improvements were made and the type was used by China and France postwar. 6000 built.
A Jap fighter had a codename
Was O-S-C-A-R
It shot down lots of Allied planes
Jap Aces under fire
Nimble. Fighters and bombers it did slay
Because Nakajima had a way
Providing "Falcons" to the IJA
Confused by Allies in a daze
Seeing Zero fighters
Which were NOT carrier planes!!!
Was O-S-C-A-R
It shot down lots of Allied planes
Jap Aces under fire
Nimble. Fighters and bombers it did slay
Because Nakajima had a way
Providing "Falcons" to the IJA
Confused by Allies in a daze
Seeing Zero fighters
Which were NOT carrier planes!!!
Note: I am using Jap only because it is shorter in syllables than Japanese. It is, however, historically accurate for the time. Last 3 lines were added. IJA refers to Imperial Japanese Army.

Frank was better!
If the war had gone on a little longer, it would have been a sight to see the Supermarine Sea Fang fight a Shinden or a Karyu ;-)
5's and that's no baloney! :)
One of the local TV stations bleeps the word "Jap" out of old WWII movies.
It should be noted that the US Codenamers had the hardest time with Japanese types due to the split between IJA and IJN aircraft plus Japanese advertisements in newspaper and aviation mags claiming new aircraft that were faked as operational types.
