Manufactured in Manchuria, the Ki-79 served as an advanced trainer aircraft. The two variants differ primarily in cockpit configuration – A was a single-seater, while B was a two-seat version. Introducing these machines into service enabled fighter pilots to train on aircraft with real combat performance, which was crucial given the increasing needs of the Japanese air forces between 1942 and 1945.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manchukuo, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHistorical period:\u003c\/strong\u003e World War II (years 1942-1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e high quality polystyrene (plastic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariants:\u003c\/strong\u003e kit allows building either A or B version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e plastic sprues, decals, assembly instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nWe especially recommend this model to intermediate and advanced aircraft modelers, as well as collectors of aviation equipment from the Far East during World War II. Realistic details on the wing, fuselage, and cockpit surfaces capture the unique silhouette of the Ki-79. As a plastic kit, it requires separate purchase of glue and paints, allowing for full personalization of the finish and markings. The model can be assembled with an open cockpit and can be further detailed with aftermarket model accessories.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis product is the perfect choice for modelers who appreciate historically accurate replicas of rarely seen aircraft from Asian fronts.
