Product Description

The J7W1 Shinden was developed by the Japanese in the closing months of WWII as an aircraft which would be effective against the ever more numerous American heavy bombers like the B-29. The aircraft employed a radical pusher configuration with the engine in the rear and also featured canards instead of a conventional tailplane. The prototype undertook three flight tests in August 1945 but the war ended before the types potential could be fully explored. Highly detailed model kit includes waterslide decals and illustrated instructions. Kit consists of 55 parts. Decal options included: Shinden No.1 Prototype Aircraft, August 1945. Paint colors needed: IJN Dk Green, IJN Light Grey, Flat Black, Flat Green, Flat Dark Brown, Flat Flesh, Flat White, Flat Light Brown, Flat Rust, Flat Light Grey, Flat Dark Grey, Flat Orange Yellow, Gloss Silver, Gloss White, Gloss Blue-Green, and Gloss Gun Metal.
