Description

Plastic model kit of the Nakajima Ki-43-II Late Version Hayabusa “Oscar” in 1:48 scale

The Hasegawa 07553 kit represents the Nakajima Ki-43-II Hayabusa in its late-production form, finished in the markings of the 25th Flight Regiment of the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force. Known to the Allies as “Oscar”, the Ki-43 was one of Japan’s most widely used fighters during World War II.

The Ki-43-II variant featured a strengthened airframe, improved protection, and revised wing structure, while retaining the exceptional maneuverability that made the Hayabusa famous. This balance of agility and simplicity defined Japanese fighter tactics during much of the conflict.

In the box you will find:

  • plastic parts to build the Nakajima Ki-43-II in 1:48 scale
  • accurately shaped late-version airframe
  • detailed cockpit and landing gear bays
  • weapons and external stores
  • decals for 25th Flight Regiment, aircraft No.01
  • clear, illustrated assembly instructions

Model specifications:

  • Scale: 1:48
  • Wingspan: approx. 21.0 cm
  • Manufacturer: Hasegawa
  • Difficulty level: intermediate

Note: The kit does not include glue, paints, or modeling tools. The model is intended for self-assembly.

Essential tools:

  • Hobby knife or sprue cutters
  • Files and sandpaper
  • Brushes
  • Plastic cement
  • Paint set for IJAAF WWII aircraft

About the Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusa:

The Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusa was the primary fighter of the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force during the early and mid-stages of the Pacific War. Although lightly armed and protected compared to later Allied fighters, it was highly maneuverable and remained in frontline service until the end of the war in improved variants such as the Ki-43-II.
