Product Description
Special Feature: Homeland Air Defense Battle: Zero Fighters, Raiden, and Gekko of the Navy's Third and Second Air Group
The Imperial Japanese Navy's 3rd-2nd Naval Air Group (3rd-2nd Air Group), commonly known as the Atsugi Air Group, was engaged in interception missions as the main force in the Kanto air defense, centered on the imperial capital of Tokyo.
It was established in March 1944 as the Navy's first local fighter squadron.
Equipped with Zero, Raiden, Gekko, Ginga, and Suisei fighters, they bravely confronted American aircraft advancing toward the mainland at the end of the war with their deadly diagonal guns.
This time we will feature aircraft that were active in the 3rd and 2nd Air Groups.
