JAPANESE A6M2 ZERO FIGHTER

Welcome to Marushin Industry  die-cast metal aircraft replicas! These are some of the nicest machined die-cast aircraft that you will currently find. These aircraft are made/produced in Japan and are reflective of their attention to detail and precision. All Marushin models are 1:48 scale. All significant parts are metal including a finely machined metal prop and hub unit that  imitates the compression stroke of a reciprocating engine! Models feature authentic markings and graphics, accurate scaling, retractable landing gear (on models S-002, S-003 and S-0018. On the other models, you can have either a fixed down and locked gear, or a gear up and locked position,  your choice when you assemble that part), sliding canopy, rotating prop(s) and rotating wheels. They are very heavy for their size!  Marushin aircraft come as "kits" that require minimal assembly. I have done several and find it very simple and actually kind of fun! It takes approximately 30 minutes or so to accomplish. No painting, drilling or complicated assembly on any model.

Historical Note:   This Navy Type Zero Carrier Fighter Model 21 equipped all six of the Imperial Japanese Navy carriers which struck Pearl Harbor. AI-101 is the aircraft of Major Sigeru Itaya, flight leader of the 1st Carrier Air Division aboard AKAGI in December 1941.
