Historic Kawanishi Kyofu Type 11 in 1/48 Scale

The Tamiya 61036 model represents the Kawanishi N1K1 Kyofu Type 11, a floatplane fighter developed by Kawanishi Aircraft for the Imperial Japanese Navy. Entering service in 1943, the Kyofu was assigned to maritime operations and earned the Allied nickname "Rex" for its dependable construction.

At 1/48 scale, the kit details the Kyofu's midwing arrangement and the characteristic float units, and it reflects the aircraft's Mitsubishi Kasei radial engine installation. The components are moulded to preserve panel lines and surface features suited to careful painting and finishing.

What comes in the box aside from plastic parts?

Along with finely moulded plastic sprues, the kit includes decal sheets and an instruction booklet to guide assembly and painting.

Is the cockpit detailed enough for painting?

Cockpit features are modelled for 1/48 and accept paint and minor detailing; modellers seeking extra fidelity often add aftermarket seatbelts or instrument decals.

Can I weather this kit for an operational look?

Yes, the surface detail and panel lines respond well to washes and drybrushing, making realistic weathering and operational finishes achievable.

Are alternative markings available?

The included decals cover primary schemes; additional marking sets or aftermarket decals can expand options for specific units or camouflage patterns.
