The T100 didn't do any of these things. You are, of course, absolutely right on points 1 and 2. Type 100 started as recon. But it was converted into night fighter later (including some Schräge Musik-style setups similar to those fitted on J1N). It even seen some combat in the Rabaul area, though ultimately it was unsuccesful. J1N is much better fit and I have no idea how I could forgot about it. Somehow I fixated on army planes and forgot Navy Type 2 Recon.
