The Tamiya 61036 kit delivers a careful recreation of the Kawanishi N1K1 Kyofu Type 11, the floatplane fighter developed by Kawanishi Aircraft for the Imperial Japanese Navy. Intended to support amphibious operations in the Pacific, the Kyofu entered service in 1943 and became known to Allied crews as "Rex" for its sturdy airframe and capable performance.
Built at 1/48 scale, this model highlights the Kyofu's midwing layout and authentic float assemblies, and reflects the aircraft's original powerplant, the Mitsubishi Kasei radial engine. The parts are engineered for fine surface detail to satisfy modellers focused on historical accuracy.
