[18] Chinese aircraft were intercepted 571 times (70%), and 199 Russian aircraft. [18] The majority of the Chinese aircraft flew over Okinawa prefecture. [18] a b Hanes, Elizabeth (16 January 2015). "The Akutan Zero: How a Captured Japanese Fighter Plane Helped Win World War II". History.com. According to a theory, the very late production Model 22 might have had wings similar to the shortened, rounded-tip wing of the Model 52. [42] One plane of such arrangement was photographed at Lakunai Airfield ("Rabaul East") in the second half of 1943, and has been published widely in a number of Japanese books. While the engine cowling is the same of previous Model 32 and 22, the theory proposes that the plane is an early production Model 52. [43]

It must be radar-absorbent to a greater or lesser degree to help reduce its radar cross-section as much as possible, for obvious reasons. Being so advanced, systems integration is also going to be a major headache. Sakaida, Henry. The Siege of Rabaul. St. Paul, Minnesota: Phalanx Publishing, 1996. ISBN 1-883809-09-6. Replica – owned by Warren Pietsch at the Texas Flying Legends Museum in Houston, Texas. This aircraft, known as the "Blayd" Zero, is a reconstruction based on templating original Zero components recovered from the South Pacific. To be considered a "restoration" and not a reproduction, the builders used a small fraction of parts from the original Zero landing gear in the reconstruction. [135] [136] It was built as an A6M2 Model 21. [137] [138] This aircraft was damaged in a ground accident on 15 March 2016, when a Goodyear FG-1D Corsair taxiing behind it overran the tail of the Zero, with the Corsair's propeller shredding roughly the last third of the Zero's fuselage and its control surfaces.

The Mitsubishi A6M " Zero" is a long-range carrier-based fighter aircraft formerly manufactured by Mitsubishi Aircraft Company, a part of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, and was operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) from 1940 to 1945. The A6M was designated as the Mitsubishi Navy Type 0 carrier fighter ( 零式艦上戦闘機, rei-shiki-kanjō-sentōki ), or the Mitsubishi A6M Rei-sen. The A6M was usually referred to by its pilots as the Reisen ( 零戦, zero fighter), "0" being the last digit of the imperial year 2600 (1940) when it entered service with the Imperial Navy. The official Allied reporting name was " Zeke", although the name "Zero" was used colloquially as well.

The Judy first appeared in 1942 as the replacement for the aging Val, and as such it features more heavily later in the game. It features a number of notable improvements, including the ability to carry a larger bomb load, an internal weapons bay, retracting landing gear and the ability to carry depth charges. These differences combine to make a far superior aircraft which remains incredibly agile, making it much preferable if available. The massive 800kg bomb is useful against most ships, and, when deployed in large numbers, has the ability to take on larger ships (however, be advised torpedo bombers are more suited to this task).

In 1941, Nakajima introduced the Sakae 21 engine, which used a two-speed supercharger for better altitude performance, and increased power to 831kW (1,130hp). A prototype Zero with the new engine was first flown on 15 July 1941. [36]
