[C-27] 1/72 E14Y type Zero "Glen"

Capture the unique history of the Yokosuka E14Y Type Zero "Glen," the only Japanese aircraft to bomb the American mainland during World War II. This 1/72 scale model kit from Fujimi meticulously recreates the distinctive twin-float reconnaissance seaplane that played a crucial role in Imperial Japanese Navy submarine operations.

Designed for covert missions, the E14Y was carried aboard submarines in a watertight hangar, capable of being quickly assembled and launched from a catapult. Its operational history includes reconnaissance flights over Pearl Harbor following the attack and the daring incendiary bomb raids on Oregon in September 1942.

This Fujimi kit, identified as [C-27], features finely engraved panel lines and raised rivet detail, capturing the aircraft's unique construction, including the corrugated surface details on the rear fuselage, elevators, and wings. The kit provides a detailed representation of this historically significant aircraft, complete with 42 parts for an engaging build.

• Highly detailed styrene plastic parts for one E14Y Type Zero "Glen" aircraft
• Two clear plastic parts for the one-piece canopy and bomb-aimer's window
