The Eduard D32017 A6M2 stencils TAMIYA 1/32 set is a high-quality set of decals (stencils) dedicated to the Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero aircraft model in 1/32 scale, produced by TAMIYA. This product has been developed by the renowned Czech company Eduard, specializing in premium modeling accessories. The set is designed to reproduce the original, detailed operational inscriptions and markings (so-called stencils) on replicas of the Japanese WWII fighter aircraft.

Historical Background of the Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero

The Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero model represents one of the most famous fighter planes of the Imperial Japanese Navy, actively used during World War II. Its legend began during the Battle of the Pacific – the Zero stood out for its incredible maneuverability, range, and low weight. Widely used in Japanese aviation between 1940 and 1945, the A6M2 took part in the most significant naval and air battles, such as the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Battle of Midway, and the combat over Guadalcanal.

Set Contents and Material

Eduard D32017 is a set of decals printed using silk screen technology on a thin, precise carrier film. The kit includes a complete set of operational stencils accurately matching the original – you will find here: technical inscriptions, servicing lines, warnings, and service markings in both Japanese and English. The decals are printed on high-quality, thin paper, allowing easy adaptation to surface details of the model and precise reproduction of reality.

Recommendation and Difficulty Level

We recommend this product especially to intermediate and advanced modellers who want to take their projects to a higher level of authenticity. Applying operational stencils requires precision and familiarity with water-slide decal techniques, so we rate the assembly difficulty at 3/5.
