--The 70th appearance of the JT series is the Zero Fighter Type 52. Many people have been waiting for the 52-inch renewal of the JT series.
――The Zero Fighter Type 52, which is revived in the present age with the current Hasegawa technology, will surely not disappoint.
-The Zero Fighter, which has the speed and firepower to compete with US military aircraft, is the 52 type.
――As a result of adopting a short main wing like the 32 type and shaping the wing tip, it was born as a faster aircraft than any type of Zero Fighter, and was mass-produced most.
--The kit is a long-awaited remake! Redesigned with the latest evidence.
――As with the Zero Fighter 22 and 32 types, we have introduced a parts configuration that can reproduce the flap down as well as the delicate reproduction with the sharp concave mold.
――Furthermore, by making the panel line of the main wing a separate part, it is a convertible of 52 type and 52 type instep.
--Two types of spinners and a tank with stable wings are also made into parts.
――The Zero Fighter Type 21, which continued to make good progress in the beginning of the war, became inferior in speed and firepower to the new fighter planes of the US Army and Navy that appeared one after another in 1943.
――Therefore, the 52 type was developed following the 32 type and 22 type, the wingspan was shortened from 12 m to 11 m for the 21 type and 22 type, and the cowling was redesigned to equip a thrust type single exhaust pipe. As a result, the maximum speed is 565km / h, which is 25km / h superior to the 22 type.
――In addition, the 20mm machine gun in the wing was replaced with a belt-fed 99 type No. 2 type 4 20mm machine gun, and a 52 type instep with a thicker main wing outer plate was produced to increase the dive speed limit. The demand continued, with Type 52 B, which strengthened the right side of the 7.7 mm machine gun on the nose to a 13 mm machine gun, Type 52, which added a 13 mm machine gun to the outside of the 20 mm machine gun on both main wings of Type B, and Nakajima for the Type 52 series. About 6,000 aircraft were produced at Mitsubishi and continued to fight until the end of the Pacific War.
