Kyushu J7W1 Shinden Short Kit by Royal Airframes

The Royal Airframes Kyushu J7W1 Shinden has a wingspan of 1850mm or 73 inches making the model 1/6th scale. Designed for builders who appreciate authentic scale character, powerful performance, and practical construction. If you are looking to build one of the most unusual model and an aircraft that will turn heads at any airfield, then this is that model. 
 
The Kyushu J7W1 Shinden was prototype developed at the end of the second world war by the Imperial Japanese Navy as a land-based interceptor to try to stop the B-29 raids on Japan.  For interception missions, the J7W was to be armed with four, forward-firing 30 mm Type 5 cannons in the nose.  The Shinden was expected to be a highly maneuverable interceptor, but only two prototypes were finished before the end of the War. A jet engine–powered version was considered but never reached the drawing board
 
The short kit consists of laser cut formers and wing ribs as set out in the cad files. The basic structure uses conventional modelling tools and materials such as balsa and plywood. The building techniques required are straight forward and easily accomplished by anyone with previous model building experience.
