Although many young pilots did take off on ‘One-Way Missions' thanks to the ‘Kamikaze' movement not all were willing to sacrifice themselves at this late stage of the war… Some wanted to survive, difficult though that might be. This second Mitsubishi A6M5 also reflects the dire reality of aircraft production in Japan in late 1944 going into the middle of 1945. Aircraft factories and airfields throughout Japan were being constantly bombed and strafed by Allied aircraft on an almost daily basis. All kinds of aircraft were being produced and repaired as well as being ‘cannibalized' for spare parts. This particular A6M5 has combined parts and elements from both Army Air Force and Imperia Navy Zeroes to provide one of the more unique aircraft colour schemes defending the skies over Japan at this late stage of the Pacific War. In addition to its two 20mm cannons and 7.7mm machine guns this model also has two small bombs attached (one under each wing). A standing Japanese fighter pilot figure is also included.
