Product Overview:

This item is a Japanese-language book or magazine about aircraft and/or aircraft modeling. Some Japanese aircraft books, such as the Aero Detail series contain complete English text as well. See the product description below for details. 72 pages.

 

This mid to late-war successor to the Zero suffered from a bad engine like so many other late-war Japanese planes. Still, when it was flying, it was a formidable opponent for U.S. aviators.

Book features the newly-restored Champlin aircraft as well as the U.S. Air Force Museum's plane and Pensacola's to give you over 150 full-color detail photos and dozens of technical illustrations and diagrams covering all variants. Historical photos of the Shiden-kai in action, too. All text and captions in both English and Japanese. 72 pages. 26 x 25.5cm format. Soft-cover with dust jacket.
