A plastic model that requires assembly and painting. Separate tools, paint, etc. are required.
Product introduction As a successor to the Type 90 water reconnaissance aircraft, the Type 95 water reconnaissance aircraft, which was adopted in 1935, will be made into a kit using a completely new mold. This aircraft is characterized by a design that incorporates an upper wing with a swept angle and a lower wing with no swept angle at all, and the aircraft has a frame made of wood and metal and is covered with canvas. At the time, it was said to have maneuverability comparable to the Type 96 battleship, and was used not only for enemy search and reconnaissance, but also for air combat and bombing missions. It was deployed to ground bases and was used as an onboard aircraft for many ships, including the battleship Nagato. The kit has been designed with emphasis on the unique texture of a down-covered aircraft. The fuselage and lower wing are separated by making the upper half of the fillet a separate part and molding the lower half into the main wing side to accurately reproduce the shape. Ribs are provided inside the upper and lower wing parts to ensure strength after assembly. The cowling is reproduced in three parts like the actual machine. The main float is divided into upper and lower parts. The vertical tail rudder is a separate part. The horizontal stabilizer has been designed based on newly obtained materials. The 7.7mm rotating machine gun on the back of the rear seat reproduces the stored state. Contains 2 pilot figures for the front seat and the back seat (plastic parts prototype: Mr. Ichiro Take). A cover to prevent engine overcooling, two 60kg bombs, and a dolly are included.
