Bulit by Mitsubishi. Assigned to either the Tainan Kokutai or 2nd Kokutai based at Buna
Airfield (Old Strip).
Wartime History
Abandoned or destroyed on the ground at Buna
Airfield (Old Strip). Other
more complete wrecks were transported by barge to Australia, for
evaluation
at Eagle Farm.
Wreckage
Probably an A6M3 Model 32 Zero, the wreckage is too small,
and
badly
damaged, to identify further.
Justin Taylan adds:
"I examined this wreckage in 2000 and 2003, and was unable to
find any data or additional information to identify it, other than
the
fact it were parts of a Zero."
