The Ki-43 Hayabusa Fighter served as the Japanese Army's main fighter during World War II. Development began in 1937, prior to World War II, with the prototype completed in 1938. While it did not meet the Army's requirements, the addition of drop tanks gave it a range of over 2,000 km. In April 1941, the test aircraft, the Ki-43, was officially adopted as the Ki-1 Fighter. The first type, equipped with a Ha-25 engine, was called the Type I and featured two 7.7mm machine guns. Later, the armament was upgraded to one 7.7mm machine gun and one 12.7mm cannon. Furthermore, the Type II had its engine replaced with a Ha-115, and the propeller changed from a two-bladed to a three-bladed one. The final production model, the Type III, saw its engine replaced with a Ha-115-II equipped with a water-ethanol injection system, further improving its performance.

      Serving as the Army's main fighter from the start of World War II, the Hayabusa continued to fight bravely against many Allied pilots thanks to its exceptional maneuverability and the skill of its pilots.


About the Model

      This 1/144 scale model recreates the Hayabusa, the Imperial Japanese Army's main fighter of World War II. This particular model is a replica of the early Hayabusa Type I.
The aircraft's shape, including the panel lines, is realistically rendered. The 61mm overall length allows the Hayabusa's highly maneuverable flight posture to be clearly seen. The drop tanks under the wings are also faithfully reproduced.

      Four types of markings are included, including those for the 64th Air Squadron and the Akeno Army Flying School. All aircraft feature unpainted natural metal markings. Decals are provided for the anti-glare paint on the nose, the gray-green painted control surfaces, and the canopy frame, so after painting the parts silver, you can easily apply the decals to create the perfect finish.
The parts are manufactured by Platz and include parts for two aircraft. The limited number of parts makes assembly easy, and the finished product fits in the palm of your hand. This is a kit that will be fun to build.

Comfortable and good value
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
The material of this cotton/linen blend kaftan is light and breathable. The sleeves are just the right length for me. The fit around my chest is a bit tight, but still it’s comfortable to wear so long as I don’t reach up for something. FYI, I have a 52-inch chest and ordered a size XXL (the largest available); this should allow others to judge how the size runs. I wore it to dinner with some Moroccan co-workers who dressed in similar garments; they were impressed, and complimented on how nice it looked on me. I told them that one day I’d surprise them with such a garment, and I definitely did just that. The lower 2 buttons work great, but the one around the collar has a very tight loop which makes it difficult to button and unbutton. I can’t use that button anyway because the collar is too small for my neck. The craftsmanship is top notch according to my friends. I didn’t mention that I got this for free, and let them know the Amazon price. They agreed with me that this was a good value.

For the L*ve of the Game...
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large, Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
When I ordered this beautiful Thobe I noticed along with its minimalistic nature in looks that it took on, was the low price point... these dress garments usually run me a pretty penny in pastimes. It is soft, breathable & comfortable with a slender-like fit, all while being made of cotton and linen, which can be worn in multiple seasons... I ordered the black for a test run, and I am always on the look-out for (linen-cotton) around the clock (seasons)! And I am very pleased to report that I need additional colors because the quality of this garment is off the hook... and I want them all on MY hook! "WE WINN"

Fits great and works well in the hot summers - May order more in the future in other colors
Color: White, Size: X-Large
Looks and feels great - very breathable in the hot summers with the Cotton and Linen blend. It felt a little rough at first but after washing it it feels wonderful (and it did not shrink!). It fit well and the size is true to what the table shows. It felt a little long at first but I got used to it very quickly. It's comfortable when going outside when it's 80+ F outside. This seems like a quality product and I hope it will last for years to come. Within the next few months of summer, if I really like after wearing it a few times I might order some other colors!
