Trumpeter 01323 1/144 Kawanishi H6K5-L Scale Model Kit  [TP01323]

Overview of the Trumpeter 01323 1/144 Kawanishi H6K5-L

The Trumpeter 01323 accurately represents the Japan Kawanishi H6K5-L, a long range flying boat used for reconnaissance and transport in wartime. This compact 1/144 kit gives modellers the chance to recreate the hull contours and wing layout with fine scale parts.

Service Role and Modelling Details

Nicknamed "Mavis" by Allied observers, the H6K5-L was valued for its endurance on maritime patrols and its flexible use across theatres. The kit highlights the aircraft's prominent hull and engine nacelles, making it a satisfying subject for builders who enjoy small scale precision work.

Assembly Tips and Display Potential

Suitable for modellers with some kit experience, Trumpeter 01323 balances detail and buildability. Finished models display neatly on compact shelves and make excellent companions to other 1/144 naval and patrol aircraft.
