The Hien (Code named Tony by the Allies) did use a liscensed built German engine, but this plane was not a copy of the Me-109. It looks like one and was the only in-line piston engine built by the Japanese in WW2. 2,666 were built. A capable design, it was later outclassed by later US fighters. Fortunately for the Allies, it was tough to maintain and the engine was not the most reliable. There are 30 pages of narrative, a lot of interesting B&W photos, 2 pages of data, plus 8 pages of colour profile drawings.
