Tamiya 89758 1/48 Nakajima A6M2-N Rufe and Type 95 Kurogane Set  [89758]

Overview of Tamiya 89758 Nakajima A6M2-N Rufe with Type 95 Kurogane

The Tamiya 89758 kit pairs the floatplane variant of the famous Zero fighter, the Nakajima A6M2-N "Rufe", with the nimble Type 95 Kurogane light vehicle. Both come in 1/48 scale, giving modellers a compact but detailed representation of wartime equipment.

Historical Role and Modelling Appeal

The Rufe was a seaplane adaptation used by the Imperial Japanese Navy for operations where runways were unavailable, fitted with floats to operate from water. The Type 95 Kurogane served as a small reconnaissance and utility vehicle that supported front line and island duties.

Construction Experience and Finish

Precision-moulded plastic parts provide close-fitting assemblies for builders familiar with scale modelling. The completed models are suitable for shelf displays or small vignettes showing air-sea support scenarios.
