Trumpeter 01323 1/144 Kawanishi H6K5-L Collector Kit  [TP01323]

Trumpeter 01323 1/144 Kawanishi H6K5-L Model Summary

The Trumpeter 01323 reproduces the Japan Kawanishi H6K5-L, a long range flying boat often used for patrol and transport duties. In 1/144 scale the kit presents the aircraft's distinctive hull and wing arrangement for a tidy, small footprint model.

Operational Background and Scale Features

Known to Allied crews as "Mavis", the H6K5-L saw extensive maritime use thanks to its range and load capacity. This kit reflects the aircraft's main contours and offers parts that replicate the boatlike hull and engine positions at reduced scale.

Build Level and Presentation Ideas

Designed for builders with some kit experience, Trumpeter 01323 strikes a balance between detail and assembly simplicity. Completed builds work well on shelves, display cases, or grouped with other 1/144 naval aircraft for a compact showcase.
