Ki-43 Oscar in Indonesian service
As seen in museum

Scale:
1:72
Status:
Completed
Started:
October 14, 2025

I decided to make this kit after having seen the airplane in the Indonesian Air Force museum in Yogyakarta - a museum I can really recommend for its size and diverse collection of all eras of the Indonesian air force. While the instructions for the decals say to paint the propeller brown, the Ki-43 stored in the museum actually has an aluminium propeller. The AML kit can be a bit frustrating, especially with how much the resin parts are stuck to the base plates.
