The Kawasaki Ki-22 was a design for a heavy bomber in response to a Imperial Japanese Army specification issued on 15 February 1936. The rival Nakajima Ki-19 and Mitsubishi Ki-21 designs both reached the prototype stage. The Ki-21 was chosen by the Japanese Army and entered production as the Army Type 97 Heavy Bomber. However, the Ki-22 never progressed beyond the design stage.[1][unreliable source?]
