The Hasegawa 02416 kit models the Aichi E13A1 Type Zero "Jake" at 1/72 scale, showing its fitment on the Battleship Kongo with the catapult assembly. The parts are engineered to reproduce the aircrafts silhouette and deck equipment for realistic modelling scenes.

Used as a long range scout, the E13A1 was essential to fleet reconnaissance and this kit highlights the aircrafts defining features. The catapult detail enhances the scene setting for shipboard operations.

Construction Characteristics and Presentation
