Overview

Produced from the autumn of 1942, the A6M3 Model 32 was a development of the famous Zero fighter, designed to improve its performance against new Allied aircraft. It featured a more powerful Sakae 21 engine and its main wings were shortened and given a distinctive squared-off finish. This resulted in a higher top speed and better roll rate, and its unique appearance led the Allies to give it its own codename: ‘Hamp.’

This 1/72 scale kit from Tamiya is a detailed replica of this unique Zero variant. The model accurately captures the specific features of the Model 32, including its squared-off wingtips and refined engine cowling. It features an excellent level of detail in the cockpit and landing gear bays, and includes options for an open or closed canopy, plus three different marking schemes to choose from.
