The Tamiya 60737 Aichi M6A1 Seiran in 1/72 scale depicts a unique Japanese deck bomber seaplane that was developed for operations from I-400 class submarines. This type was intended to allow covert raids on strategic targets such as the Panama Canal, and to provide the Imperial Navy with the ability to attack far behind enemy lines.
The Seiran was designed to be quickly folded into a hangar on the submarine's deck and, when surfaced, could be prepared for launch by catapult. Although the project reached the testing phase, Japan capitulated before the aircraft could be combat deployed.
The model features a detailed cockpit, realistic paneling, the ability to be assembled with the wings spread or folded, and authentic Japanese naval aviation livery. The precision craftsmanship makes it an ideal choice for modelers interested in the lesser known Japanese WWII aircraft.
The package does not include the paint or glue needed for assembly.
