The Kawanishi N1K-J Shiden was a pretty good fighter as well. But Japan could never produce enough of them to make a dent.

The Mitsubishi Thunderbolt, called the Jack by the Allies, was also a good interceptor that came out toward the end of the war. The aircraft museum in Chino, Calif. has one of these, along with a Zero that flies. Once, when I visited, I watched a flight of a MiG-15 which the museum got from China.
