Tamiya Mitsibushi A6M3/3a Zero Fighter Zeke (1:48 Scale)

Developed to address the reduced range of the earlier Model 32, the Mitsubishi A6M3 Model 22 returned to a 12m wingspan with folding wingtips and added wing fuel tanks to restore range to 2,560km. This Tamiya Mitsubishi A6M3 Model 22 Zero model kit recreates the aircraft in 1/48 scale as a plastic assembly kit, with options to build the A6M3a variant armed with long-barrelled cannons. A choice of movable-position details allows the finished build to be posed with the cowl flap open or closed, and the flaps up or down.

Photo-etched parts are included to depict the folded wingtip mechanism, while pilot figures and multiple marking options complete the presentation. Intended as a detailed kit for adult constructors, it suits modellers looking to add a historically significant Zero to a 1/48 scale aircraft collection.
