Description
By 1943, the A6M2 type 21 model of the Zero was falling further and further behind the American aircraft it faced in daily combat as their speed and firepower as each more highly powered U.S. fighter was replaced by yet another. This led to the development of models with a more powerful 1,130 hp SAKAE 21 engine. The fuselage of the 21st and 22nd models was cut to 11 meters, 35 cm shorter, redesigned and a thrust type single exhaust pipe added to increase aircraft speed resulting in a 25 kph increase over the type 22's maximum speed of 565 kph. About 6,000 of the type 52 were produced, this fighter bearing the brunt of the war effort on the part of the Japanese naval fighter arm until the end of the war.
