Product Description
- The prototype Reppu, developed as a successor to the Zero Fighter, did not produce satisfactory results due to insufficient engine power, and by the summer of 1944, there were fears that development would be halted.
- Mitsubishi then decided to switch to its own engine, a move that had been on the cards since the start of development.
- Flight tests conducted two months later confirmed significant performance improvements, keeping hopes alive for mass production.
- However, as the war situation worsened, it was not possible to complete these test aircraft, and repeated air raids meant that the aircraft was far from being ready for mass production, and by the end of the war this aircraft was a "phantom fighter."
- Finished product length: 249mm, width: 291mm, number of parts: approx. 84
- Includes a pilot figure sitting in the cockpit.
