Mitsubishi A5M fighter was just entering service in early 1937 when the Imperial Japanese Navy began looking for aircraft modernization. In May 1912 released a specification-Shi on a new carrier-based fighter for the cause took Nakajima and Mitsubishi. Both firms started preliminary design work while waiting for more specific requirements. Based on experience A5M in China, the navy has sent updated requirements in October. They were a challenge for designers. Speed of 500 km / h (310 miles / hour) at an altitude of 4000 meters (13,120 feet) and climb 3000 m (9840 ft) in 3.5 min. 2 hours by the normal mode, or from six to eight hours with economical cruising speed. Armament was to consist of two 20-mm cannons, two 7.7 mm (0.303 inch) machine guns and two 30 kg (70 pounds) or 60 kg (130 lb) bombs. A complete set of radio was supposed to be installed in all planes, as well as the finder for flights over long distances. Maneuverability must be at least equal to the A5M, and has a wingspan of less than 12 m (39 ft) to fit on ships carriers. All of this was to be achieved with such engines have been available at that time. Nakajima team considered the new requirements of reach and out of the contest in January. Chief Designer, Mitsubishi, Jiro Horikoshi, felt that the requirements can be met, but only if the aircraft will be made as easy as possible. Most aircraft have been built from the T-7178 (aluminum), top-secret aluminum alloy developed by Japan specifically for this aircraft. It was lighter and stronger than normal aluminum used at the time, but was more brittle. In addition, there was no armor for the pilot, engine or other critical points of the aircraft. This made the Zero easier and more brisk than most other aircraft in the beginning of the war, but also made him prone to catch fire and explode when ram the enemy. The last is often used suicide bombers. Creating Paper Models
