Cyber Hobby 5107 Aichi D3A1 Type 99 Val Midway 1942 (1/72)

The Cyber Hobby 5107 Aichi D3A1 Type 99 Val 1/72 scale plastic model kit is a proposition for enthusiasts of historical aircraft modeling. The Aichi D3A1 Type 99, known under the Allied codename "Val," was the main dive bomber of the Japanese Navy during World War II. This model represents an aircraft used during the famous Battle of Midway in 1942, one of the most important air-naval operations in the Pacific, where aircraft of this type played a key role in attacks on American aircraft carriers.

Aichi D3A1 aircraft were introduced into service in 1939 and were mainly operated by Japan during World War II, fighting in the Pacific region from the beginning of the war until Japan's surrender in 1945. Their effectiveness during the attack on Pearl Harbor and in subsequent campaigns secured their place in aviation history.

The presented 1/72 scale model is made of high-quality plastic, guaranteeing realistically reproduced details of the fuselage, wings, and landing gear. The kit's components are designed with precision to recreate the characteristic features of the D3A1, including wing profile, panel lines, and crew cockpit equipment. Glue and paints are not included, allowing you to choose your own color scheme using model paints compatible with plastic.
