TAM60785 1:72 Tamiya Mitsubishi A6M3 (Zeke) - 3a Zero Fighter Model 22

In summer of 1942 the Model 32 Zero fighter, which featured a superior high-altitude performance and an increased top speed, was introduced. However, its heavy design, reduced fuel capacity, and shorter wings resulted in a reduced flight range. In order to counter this problem, early 1943 saw the introduction of the Model 22 aircraft which came with a standard 11m wingspan and had additional inner-wing fuel tanks to regain a longer flight range. The Mitsubishi A6M3/3a Zero fighter was considered by many to be the most well-balanced Zero aircraft.
The Tamiya 1/72 scale model captures every detail of this historic war bird. Tamiya�??s model researchers went to great lengths in collecting data to bring the most accurate model of the Zero to the model enthusiast.

• Features newly-designed parts for main wings.
• The one-piece engine cowling was manufactured using slide-molding techniques.
