The Type 2 floatplane fighter, otherwise known as the A6M2-N (Allied
reporting name "Rufe"), was created to provide reconnaissance and
defense for remote Japanese outposts such as the Aleutian Islands in
WWII. It was essentially a normal A6M2 Zero which had its landing gear
replaced with floats. This kit accurately depicts this unique aircraft
and features plenty of engine and cockpit detail. The canopy may be
assembled in either open or closed position and parts for the beaching
trolley are also included. The kit also comes with two pilot figures and
seven marking options.
