Description: This is my repaint of the Mitsubishi A6M2 Reisen (Zero) in classic white as it is widely known. All though the exact color scheme is not known, my repaint is the closest one to historical evidence at hand at many air museums. Eye witness reports of the aircraft color scheme at Pearl Harbor indicate some were a chalky white, a green grey, and some said they were brownish in color. There was little time to take pictures at the time, much less color photos.
This model has a VC, but with no working gauges. I repainted the panel with acurate gauges from the A6M. A nice 2d Panel with working gauges.
At 08:10 at Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, anti-aircraft fire from USS Helm and Fort Kamehameha, to south of Hickam, brings down PO1c Takeshi Hirano's Zero fighter, AI-154. Hirano was wingman to the leader of the 1st wave escorts. He crashed into Building 52 at Fort Kamehameha killing himself and 3 soldiers. During Pearl Harbor attack, aircraft carrier AKAGI had only one A6M2 shot down: the plane flown by Hirano. Japanese pilots had total devotion on duty, include the self-sacrifice if was necessary. The Japanese lost a total of 29 airplanes.
Many thanks to the authors of this aircraft. B24 Guy (=Scott Johnson), Evan G. Butterbrodt (RevEv), Lawdog, and Hrik Hertzberger (hertzie).
