Museum-Grade 1/48 Mitsubishi A6M3a Zero by Tamiya 21097

The Tamiya 21097 faithfully renders the Mitsubishi A6M3a Zero Fighter, modelled on the 2-163 machine from the Japanese Navy's 201st Air Group. At 1/48 scale the kit captures the aircraft's clean lines and wartime silhouette while offering parts accuracy for refined assembly. Metal detailing is applied where appropriate, notably the pitot tube, and the kit includes crisp pad printed markings to increase authenticity.

Careful weathering detail is included to suggest service wear and operational use, appealing to display builders and collectors. The finished model spans 250mm across the wings with a 190mm fuselage length and comes with a seated pilot figure to add life to the cockpit scene.

How detailed is the cockpit on this kit?

The cockpit includes a seated pilot figure and a well-detailed instrument panel for this scale, suitable for painters who want an accurate internal look visible through the canopy.

Will the weathered finish hold up over time?

The kit provides a weathered paint scheme as a guide; sealing with a clear coat after finishing will help preserve the applied weathering and protect the pad printed markings on long term display.
