Tamiya 1/48 Mitsubishi A6m3 3a 22 Zero Model Kit

The A6M3 Model 22 restored the full-span folding wingtips that had been clipped on the Model 32, recovering the long range essential for Pacific operations while retaining the uprated Sakae 21 engine. This balanced variant served during the critical Solomons and New Guinea campaigns of 1943. Tamiya's 1/48 kit captures the full-span wing configuration with detailed engine, cockpit, and multiple marking options for Rabaul-based units.
