Tamiya 1/48 Mitsubishi A6M5/5a Zero Fighter kit overview

This Tamiya 1/48 Mitsubishi A6M5/5a Zero Fighter model kit captures the character of the Japanese Navy's lightweight fighter in a compact 1/48 scale. It is aimed at modellers who appreciate period detail and a faithful representation of a well known WWII warplane.

Authentic wartime lineage

The Mitsubishi A6M5/5a Zero was a late war development that refined the original design for improved performance. This kit lets builders represent either the Type 52 (A6M5) or the Type 52 Kou (A6M5a) configuration, and includes decal options representing three historically notable units to enhance accuracy.

Fine moulding and build options

Tamiya's engineering shows in the precise cockpit, engine and undercarriage detail. The kit offers multiple presentation choices, including open or closed cowl flaps and selectable landing flap positions, so you can tailor the finished model for display or diorama scenes.

Presentation and collection potential

With alternative drop tanks, spinner options and canopy masks included, the kit supports a range of display styles. The mix of seated and standing pilot figures increases diorama flexibility and adds collector value for those building a WWII aircraft display.
