Historical Information about Mitsubishi A6M2b Zero type 21

The Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero type 21 fighter served in the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II. It was this "21" variant that gained fame during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, which marked the beginning of this aircraft's presence on all Pacific fronts. The Zero type 21 was known for its great maneuverability and long range and was actively used by Japan from 1940 to 1943. Its minimalist construction gave it an advantage in air combat against American and Allied aircraft until mid-war, when it began to be outperformed by newer enemy designs.
