World War II warplanes| Planes of Japan| Nakajima A6M2-N
In 1940, preparing for a large-scale war in the Pacific, the Imperial Japanese Navy's Aviation Directorate recognized the need to create a floatplane fighter intended to cover landing forces before ground aviation could relocate to captured airfields. Development of the new aircraft in accordance with 15-C tactical and technical requirements was assigned to the Kawanishi company in September 1940.

Floats on a zero would cause drag which would slow the plane down

You should scale model. Exercise the interest.

I'm on a train and can't watch this second, but I'm glad this popped up for later!

[@airwarriors113]

Thanks for the comment. Have a safe trip. I will be happy to continue communicating with you.

[@keithhinke3277]

I believe the name "Rufe " is the correct one.

[@airwarriors113]

Thanks for the comment. Perhaps. It sounds different in different sources.

[@101jir]

I had always heard "Rafe"

[@jeffreymcdonald8267]

The visuals of this beautiful aircraft are covered up beneath the CC boxes. Terrible idea.

[@keithhinke3277]

I believe the name " Rufe " is correct.

[@airwarriors113]

Yes, thank you.

[@airwarriors113]

I want to admit that you are right. The correct name is Rufe

[@101jir]

I have always heard Rafe

[@airwarriors113]

Thank you for watching the video. Actually right Rufe

[@bcelaya3663]

It’s not a Nakajima, it a Mitsubishi like all Zeros
This is a Zero with floats attached

[@airwarriors113]

You are right, it is an adapted Mitsubishi A6M2 fighter, but it was modified and refined by Nakajima.
