Tamiya 61116 - 1/48 Nakajima Hayate (Frank)and Kurogane Scenery Set  [61116]

Revisiting History with the Tamiya 1/48 Nakajima Hayate and Kurogane Set

The Nakajima Hayate, known for its role as a formidable interceptor during the closing stages of World War II, is a significant part of aviation history. Delivered to Imperial Japanese Army air units starting in April 1944, this aircraft was pivotal in countering B-29 bombers and carrier-based threats. Meanwhile, the Type 95 Kurogane, recognized as the world's first practical 4WD vehicle, served extensively across various military fronts from China to the Pacific theater. This set by Tamiya captures these historic vehicles with precision, offering a rewarding build for both novice and experienced modelers.

Modeling Excellence and Display Potential

This Tamiya kit not only provides a faithful representation of the Nakajima Hayate and Kurogane but also includes a base for creating a realistic diorama. The inclusion of a grass-effect sheet enhances the display possibilities, allowing hobbyists to craft a scene that echoes the wartime environment. This makes the set a valuable addition to any collection focused on World War II aviation and military vehicles.
