This is a 1/72 scale plastic model kit representing the Mitsubishi G3M3 Type 96 Attack Bomber Model 23, produced as part of Hasegawa's aircraft line for scale modellers and collectors.
The Mitsubishi G3M, commonly designated Type 96 by the Imperial Japanese Navy, was a twin-engine, land-based bomber developed in the 1930s for long-range patrol and strike missions. It served through the early stages of the Pacific conflict, valued for its operational range and for use in bomber and reconnaissance roles. The Model 23 represents a wartime iteration used in carrier-based and land operations by naval air groups.
The kit reproduces the external form of the Model 23 at 1/72 scale. Construction considerations for this subject typically include alignment of wing-to-fuselage joins, clear parts for the cockpit glazing, and decal placement for unit markings. Reference photographs are recommended to refine weathering and paint shade choices for scale-accurate display.
A straightforward 1/72 representation of the G3M3 Model 23 that provides a scale-accurate subject for display and detailing work by experienced modelers and collectors.
