This unit was responsible for the air defence of the Shanghai area as well as operational training and featured in the 1987 film Empire of the Sun. The tail character Rai means Thunder.

In fact the outline is the original amber-grey showing behind the masked numbers and original Japanese sources confirm that the number is 108. Wing leading edges had thin yellow IFF strips to Mitsubishi pattern almost completely concealed by the camouflage overpainting on top of the wing but exposed at the leading edge and below the wing. The fuselage chevron is often depicted as white but is believed to have been yellow. The two upper arms are linked but the chevron does not meet beneath the fuselage.
