Hasegawa 1/48 A6M2-K Zero Trainer Late Type 11

This Hasegawa 1/48 A6M2-K represents the trainer variant used to prepare naval pilots for frontline service. The Late Type 11 version focuses on the airframe and cockpit elements that defined this trainer role during the later stages of the conflict.

Operational Background and Authenticity

The A6M2-K served as a key conversion trainer for the Imperial Japanese Navy, helping pilots move from dual-control training to single-seat fighters. This kit reproduces the late trainer configuration with attention to cockpit layout and wing geometry that appeal to history-minded modellers.

Build Notes and Finishing Tips

This 1/48 scale kit suits intermediate to advanced builders who enjoy careful assembly and paintwork. Parts are finely moulded and benefit from tidy seam work and accurate painting to bring out the details of the trainer cockpit and fuselage.
