Extraordinarily maneuverable with fast climbing capabilities, the Oscar wreaked havoc across the Pacific theatre. Its long-range and incredible performance made it virtually untouchable especially compared to the P-51 Mustang. The Hangar 9® Ki-43 Oscar 50-60cc 88" ARF brings this nimble warbird to life in a convenient scale model with unbeatable authenticity.
