Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero is arguably the most recognizable Japanese fighter aircraft of World War II, considered one of the best fighters in the early Pacific War. The version produced by Nakajima, starting in 1943, introduced numerous design improvements: better engine cooling, additional armor, and sealed fuel tanks, significantly increasing pilot survivability in air combat. The A6M5 took part in major battles, becoming an icon of Japanese aviation until the surrender in 1945.

The Eduard 3DL48220 SPACE set includes a richly decorated pilot’s instrument panel with side panels, precise multi-color 3D prints (multi-colored gauges, switches, details), photo-etched pilot seatbelts and other cockpit detail parts. The kit offers much greater realism than traditional decals or hand-painted details—it requires no time-consuming painting, providing a perfect look even for the smallest switches and control panels.

We recommend this set: for all intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level 3/5) who wish to create an impressive replica of the A6M5 Zero. It is the ideal choice for historical diorama enthusiasts, collectors, and aviation fans. With Eduard 3DL48220, you will enhance your model’s detail to the highest visual standard possible!
