Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero Fighter in 1/48 Scale - Guam 1944 Replica

The Tamiya 21148 kit faithfully reproduces the Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero Fighter, representing the Type 52-Kou flown by the 343rd Flying Corps during the 1944 Guam campaign. Part of Tamiya's Masterwork Series, this finished example reflects museum-level finishing and the historical context of the aircraft that was recovered after being downed, including the pilot's keepsake flag.

Scale Accuracy and Fine Detail

This 1/48 scale kit captures the A6M5 Zero Fighter with careful detailing. The fuselage measures 190mm long and the wingspan is 229mm, giving a true-to-life profile. Features include precise pad-printed markings, delicate photo-etched components, and a seated pilot figure for display.

Realistic Finishes for Display
