"Tamiya A6M3/3a Zeke Zero"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is a 1/48 scale assembly plastic model of the Mitsubishi A6M3/3a Zero Fighter (Zeke). Highly detailed cockpit and main landing gear In addition to a sitting pilot figure, 4 different types of standing pilot figures are included. I made the Tamiya A6m2 zero kit a few year ago and this kit is a much better kit compared to that with a good price to add . these kits are a good starter as I've been making this scale since I was 14 .

The Mitsubishi A6M3/3a Zero fighter is known for attacking on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. Model 32 was used in the summer of 1942 and featured superior high-altitude performance and increased top speed. However, the planes heavy design, reduced fuel capacity, and short wingspan resulted in reduced flight range. Because of this only 343 Model 32 planes were built. As a result, Model 22 was built in 1943 to correct the deficiencies of the previous model. This version featured an 11m wingspan, lower drag to increase speeds to 420 mph and new in-wing fuel tanks to regain a longer flight range.
