Product Description

[About the actual Kayaba Ka-1 observation aircraft]
――The Kayaba Ka-1 is the only autogyro produced and put into practical use in Japan (an aircraft equipped with a non-powered rotating wing and propelling the aircraft with a powered propeller) that remains in the history of Japanese aviation.
--The Army requested Kayaba Seisakusho to develop the balloon as an alternative to the balloon used by the artillery observer, and it was formalized in 1945.
――By taking advantage of the excellent performance of being able to take off for a short distance with a gliding distance of 20 m and stop in the air, you are fighting until the end of the war with tasks such as landing observation on the battlefield, battle command, communication, and anti-submarine patrol.
