Guillow's Nakijima A6M2-N Rufe Model Kit

This balsa wood model kit allows hobbyists to recreate the Nakajima A6M2-N Rufe, a famous Japanese WWII floatplane adapted from the Mitsubishi Zero. The kit features a generous 16.5-inch wingspan and is designed for both static display and rubber-powered flight. It recently transitioned to include precision laser-cut balsa parts for easier assembly and improved fit accuracy. Builders will find a comprehensive 24-page instruction booklet that guides them through the traditional "stick and tissue" construction process. The finished model serves as a faithful small-scale replica of the aircraft used by the Imperial Japanese Navy throughout the Pacific theatre. It is recommended for modelers aged 10 and up who enjoy classic aviation history.
