1) It appears he's talking about P-51s.

2) Interesting how he refers to the US 0.50 as a "cannon" rather than a "machine gun"; a comment on the inadequacies of IJ acft.'s firepower, maybe?

Thank you for posting this video.

The word 'cannon' may be the fault of the translator. I cannot speak Japanese so I cannot check.
