This boxed set contains:
- 1 x Nakajima Ki-115 Tsurugi 1/48 scale fighter aircraft
Imperial Japanese Army Air Force
The Nakajima Ki-115 Tsurugi (剣; ‘sabre’) is a single-seat aircraft that was developed specifically for kamikaze use by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force during the closing stages of World War II in 1945. The Imperial Japanese Navy called this aircraft Tōka (藤花, ‘Wisteria Blossom’).
The aircraft's intended purpose was to be used in kamikaze attacks on Allied shipping and the invasion fleet expected to be involved in the invasion of Japan, Operation Downfall, which, in the end, did not take place.
Because the Japanese High Command thought that Japan did not have enough obsolete aircraft to use for kamikaze attacks, it was decided that huge numbers of cheap, simple suicide planes should be constructed quickly in anticipation of the invasion of Japan.
The Limited edition kit of Japanese WWII suicide plane Ki-115 Tsurugi in 1/48 scale.
