It proved most effective during defensive operations over mainland Japan against Allied bombers, such as the B-17 Flying Fortress and the B-24 Liberator. The GEKKO version was equipped with armament firing at various angles, allowing effective attacks on bombers from below during nighttime conditions. It was in service from 1943 to 1945 and has earned its place in aviation history as one of the most prominent Japanese night fighters.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eModel Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/72\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eProduct type: plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Fujimi, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality polystyrene plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDetailed reproduction of panels, rivets, and fuselage panel lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe set includes sprues with parts, a clear canopy, decals with authentic unit markings, and assembly instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePaints and glue are not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAssembly meets the level of detail characteristic for collector's models\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Fujimi 72009 Nakajima Night Fighter GEKKO (1\/72) is an excellent choice for both intermediate and advanced modellers interested in World War II aviation, Far East-themed collectors, and anyone looking to expand their collection with a unique aircraft.
