On display at Gifu-Kakamigahara Air and Space Museum. This tandem trainer with "Ōyodo" painted on the fuselage was first flown on 11 Feb 1954 and is one of two built. It was a competitor to the Beech Model 45 Mentor as a primary trainer for the JASDF, though it was not selected. The aircraft was powered by a 260 hp Lycoming GO-435-C2B engine driving a two-bladed Hartzell propeller.

Only two KAT-1 trainers were apparently built and both are framed here with Fuji KM JA3122 in the foreground, presumably at Miyazaki. The KAT-1 was designed as a military trainer, but the Fuji-built Beech T-34 was preferred. The first prototype JA3084, in the background, was tested by the Japanese army. Both KAT-1s deleted from the register as 'obsolete' in 1962 and both listed as having gone to the Kakamigahara museum in Gifu. The KAL-2 was a cabin variant of the KAT-1, not to be confused with the KAL-1, an earlier taildragger type. Photo from: San Diego Air & Space Museum
