ICM 72202 Ki-27b Japan Army Fighter (1/72) is a high-quality plastic model kit reflecting one of the most important fighter aircraft of World War II. The 1/72 scale model is made from precisely cast plastic components, ensuring excellent fit and a high level of detail.

The Nakajima Ki-27 prototype was developed in Japan and introduced into service by the Imperial Japanese Army in 1937. This aircraft, known by the Allied codename “Nate,” was the main fighter of the Army during numerous Sino-Japanese campaigns as well as at the beginning of the Pacific War. The Ki-27b was an improved version, featuring better aerodynamics and increased reliability. Aircraft of this type actively served until around 1942, when they were replaced by newer designs, but despite the passage of years, they continued to be used for pilot training and special missions until 1945.

The presented ICM 72202 model faithfully recreates the characteristic silhouette of the Ki-27b, including a detailed cockpit, armament, and aerodynamic elements of the airframe. The kit does not include paints or glue, allowing the modeler full freedom in choosing colors according to original paint schemes and their individual vision for finishing. The step-by-step assembly instructions enable both beginners and advanced modelers to enjoy the satisfaction of assembling the model by themselves. This model is dedicated to those interested in Japanese aviation and the history of operations in the Far East during World War II.
