The Type 97 7.7mm machine gun was an onboard weapon that became a recognizable piece of armament in many Japanese military aircraft such as the famous Mitsubishi Ki-21 and the Nakajima Ki-49 bomber. The Type 97 was based on the British Vickers design, adapted by Japanese engineers for aerial use, equipping the units of the Imperial Japanese Air Force both with a basic defensive and offensive weapon, found in fighters, bombers, and reconnaissance planes. This weapon played a significant role in all major air campaigns in the Pacific.

The offered RB Model barrel is made from precisely machined metal, guaranteeing details unattainable for plastic alternatives. Thanks to this material, modellers can count on durability, excellent detail sharpness, and ease of assembly – suitable both for standard conversions and serious modelling projects.

We particularly recommend this product for advanced modellers and aviation modelling enthusiasts who prioritize the highest level of authenticity. Assembly difficulty level is rated 2/5 – requiring only basic modelling skills in metalwork and precise assembly. An indispensable addition for every lover of World War II aircraft models.
