Hobbytime Review
Mitsubishi A6m "Zero" is a long -range aircraft -based war aircraft produced by Mitsubishi Aircraft Company, previously part of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, operated by the Japanese Empire navy from 1940 to 1945. A6M is determined as Mitsubishi. Navy Type 0 carrier hunter aircraft (零式艦上戦闘機, rei-shiki-kanjō-syntōki) or Mitsubishi a6m rei-Sen. A6M was generally referred to as Reisen (零戦, zero hunter aircraft) by pilots, "0" was the last figure of the imperial year.2600 (1940) when it was put into service with the Empire Navy. The official ally reporting name was "Zeke", but the name "Zero" (Type 0) was also used among the people.
Zero, perfect maneuvering capability and very long range, bringing together, II. The Japanese Empire Navy Air Service (IJNAS) also used it as a fighter aircraft on land.
In the early battle operations, Zero gained a reputation as a dive, he gained an extraordinary killing rate of 12 to 1, but in the mid -1942, a combination of new tactics and better equipment, insert the zero of allied pilots on equal terms. In 1943, Zero was less influential against newly new allied hunter aircraft due to design restrictions. The rudder deprived of hydraulic reinforcement for its fingers makes it extremely difficult to maneuver at high speeds. By 1944, allied warriors were of great outdoor outdoor as a fighter aircraft, with the approach of A6M maneuverability levels and continuously exceeding firepower, armor and speed. However, since design delays and production difficulties prevent the launch of newly Japanese aircraft models, Zero continued to serve as a façade until the end of the war in the Pacific. In the last stages, it was adapted to be used in Kamikaze operations. Japan produced more zero than all other fighter models during the war.
Sometimes the most effective variant, the model 52 has been developed to reduce the speed and reduce the folding wing mechanism again. In addition, the fools, the wing trim tab and the fingers were revised. Firstly produced by Mitsubishi, most of the 52s were made by Nakajima. The prototype was made by modifying an A6M3 in June 1943 and first flew in August 1943. The first model 52 is said to have 3904 production number in the user manual, apparently referring to prototipe.
The study by Mr. Bunzo Komine, published by Mr. Kenji Miyazaki, states that the planes from 3904 to 4103 have the same exhaust system and bodywork wings as Model 22. LG halls, production number 4007 and 4043. A new exhaust system has increased a pushing power by targeting the heaps and distributing them around the front body. The new exhaust system required "notched" body wings and heat shields just behind the heaps. (However, note that the user manual translation states that the new exhaust style starts with number 3904. It shows whether it is true, shows its intention to strengthen, referring to prototypes, but it is uncertain or not to refer to all subsequent aircraft or not. From the number 4354, the radio, model 3, antenna Mark 1, and at this point the antenna pole is said to be slightly shortened. Thanks to the 4550 production number, the bottom exhaust chimneys were approximately the same length as the ones above. This caused the hot exhaust to burn the front edge of the gates and heat the tires. For this reason, Mitsubishi from number 4551 began to establish shorter heaps. Nakajima produced Model 52 at the Koizumi factory in Gunma. The A6M5 had a maximum of 565 km/h (351 mph) at 6,000 m (20,000 FT), which reached the height in 7:01 minutes.
About Hasegawa
Hasegawa Corporation (株式会社ハセガワ, Kabushiki Gaisha Hasegawa) is a Japanese company that produces plastic model kits of various vehicles, including aircraft, cars, ships, military vehicles, model armor, model spacecraft and science fiction kits.
Hasegawa, headquartered in Shizuoka, does not have such a wide range of products, but competes with his neighbor Tamiya.
First of all, Hasegawa kits that use the polystyrene are typically considered very accurate, but still lack the ease of assembly offered by Tamiya Kits, although it is very high.
Hobbico is imported to North America by the Great Planet Model Distributor Department. Hasegawa ended his long -standing agreement with Dragon Models Limited for US distribution in early 2010. Hasegawa also brings Revell to Japan, which sells them to Japan and sells them under both the Revell brand and their own brand label, and Revell often re -boxes for European and North American markets.
Hasegawa Kits, which do not have their own paint products series, come with instructions that indicate the use of Gunze Sangyo products, especially GSI Creos brand paints. This is contrary to Tamiya, which determines the use of in -house brands.
Hasegawa is known for launching a large number of main products, adding or changing a small number of parts, or changing stickers only for SOE. This strategy allows them to raise the return of their investment in SET tools to the highest level, because the production of such small variations is very low compared to the production cost of the original. Most of such variations are usually published only once.
