This plastic kit is designed for both intermediate and advanced modelers who want to expand their collection with an iconic World War II aircraft.

The Japanese dive bomber D4Y “Suisei” was one of the key carrier-based planes of the Imperial Japanese Navy, used in the final years of the war on aircraft carriers such as “Shōkaku” and “Zuikaku.” The D4Y saw combat in 1943 and took part in the major battles of the Pacific, including Leyte, where it gained a reputation as a fast and efficient bomber and reconnaissance plane. The Fujimi model replicates three versions of the aircraft: the reconnaissance D4Y1-C, the standard D4Y2, and the night fighter D4Y2-S designed to engage Allied B-29 bombers.
