Historical Information and Model Application

The Mitsubishi A6M5a Zero belonged to one of the most important series of Japanese fighters serving in the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service. These aircraft were used in 1944-1945, during the final phase of World War II—mainly in the Pacific theatre, including battles for archipelagos such as the Marianas and the Philippines. The A6M5a model was distinguished by its modified “noodle” type exhaust system, designed to reduce the engine signature and improve overall performance.
