Hasegawa is to release a limited edition 1/72 kit title “Akeno Flying School” in August. It will feature a Ki43-II late, a Ki44-Koh and a TX40 fuel truck
By December, 1943, Japan was seriously in need of new pilots. A series of gritty conflicts with opponents across the area of operations had ground down the Japanese Army Air Service and replacements were desperately needed from schools like Akeno. Akeno, for its part, needed more fuel, tires, instructors, aircraft, and, most importantly, time. This limited edition kit combo features two aircraft plus a TX40 Fuel Truck and lots of decals from December, 1943.

Ki43-II Late
-JAAF Akeno Army Flying School Dec.,1943
