The Nakajima Ki-62 was a Japanese World War II fighter proposed by the Nakajima Aircraft Company for the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force. Nakajima designer T. Koyama developed it to compete with the Kawasaki Ki-61 as a new light fighter: a low-wing, single-seat monoplane with a bubble canopy and an 877 kW Kawasaki Ha-40 liquid-cooled engine. The design showed promise, but Nakajima dropped it to concentrate on producing the Ki-43 and Ki-44 fighters. Its features and data were later used in the Ki-84, and a planned Ki-63 version with a 784 kW Mitsubishi Ha-102 radial engine was not pursued either, so neither project went beyond the design stage.
