Hasegawa 1/72 Nakajima Ki-44-II Shoki - Faithful Tojo Replica

The Hasegawa 1/72 Nakajima Ki-44-II Shoki kit offers a faithful small-scale replica of the Tojo fighter. The assembly parts reflect the aircrafts compact form and characteristic features for a convincing finish.

Combat Role and Characteristics

The Nakajima Ki-44 was valued for its climb and speed as an interceptor in the Imperial Japanese Army Air Service. It represents a shift in wartime aircraft design toward higher performance single-seat fighters.

Modelling Notes

Hasegawa supplies finely detailed sprues that capture the Shoki's fuselage and wing shapes. The kit rewards careful construction, sanding and painting to bring out the recessed panel lines and small features.

Display Considerations

At 1/72 scale this Ki-44-II is well suited to display cases and shelves, offering collectors an accurate representation of an important Japanese fighter in a compact package.

Intermediate modellers will get the best results, though experienced beginners can complete the kit with careful work on small parts and seams.
Use wartime Japanese camouflage tones and undersurface greys; reference photos and colour guides will help match authentic finishes.
The kit usually includes a set of decals for standard markings. For more variety, aftermarket decal sheets provide additional squadron and theatre options.
Keep the completed model out of direct sunlight and dust it gently. A display case reduces UV fading and protects delicate paint and decals.
