Mitsubishi A6M2 mod.21 Zero

24.3k Mikan  4.8 years ago

Notice : This may be either a product of Mitsubishi or Nakajima, there are minor difference between models produced by each, most notably the engine cowling.

History
The Zero is the most famous Japanese fighter of the Second World War that gave the Americans a scare at it’s debut. The west did not believe it at first until Pearl harbour. The Zero had been the Navy’s primary fighter for the entire course of the war, seeing thousands of models produced over many variants.

The A6M2 mod.21 is an improvement over the mod.11, with a slightly different cowling and an added folding wing function

Operation
AG1 to detach fuel tank (85 gal)
AG5 to conduct carrier operation (landing hook)
AG7 to bail out
AG8 to activate cannons.

Folding Wing :
Activate AG5
Deactivate AG8
vice versa.

Variants
A6M2-N
A6M3
A6M3 Kou
A6M5 Ko
A6M5 Hei
A6M8

Assists
A lot of people helped me with this, Destroyerz is the holy saviour and CSP provided the engine and wing hinge.

Bogan tried. F.

Author’s Note
I want to make a zero and I would eventually so why not now? Use this to fight the Buffalo.

    Yeah, I just need some adjusting before publishing the A6M2-N
    However, on normal zeroes, there are minor differences as stated above between the two companies’ products. @ShiroNeko
