[FREE] Mitsubishi 1MT Triplane Papermodel


Mitsubishi 1MT was a Japanese single-seat triplane torpedo bomber built for Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service for aircraft carrier Hōshō. Designed by Herbert Smith, 1MT1N first flew in August 1922 and entered service as Navy Type 10 Torpedo Bomber or Carrier Attacker. 20 aircraft were built, but the aircraft was difficult to fly and unable to operate from an aircraft carrier when carrying a torpedo. The type was soon withdrawn and scrapped.

Another Japanese aircraft model from Argwenza Kainaka, he didn't specify the scale but by comparing the wingspan of the real thing versus the model, maybe it's close to 1/79 or 1/80 scale.Well suited for interwar military aircraft enthusiast, especially for the Japanese one, it's a relatively easy model to build and the instruction panel is already inside the model file.
