{"product_id":"kawasaki-ki-61-id-hien-tony","title":"Tamiya 1\/48 Kawasaki Ki-61-Id Hien (Tony) – Silver-Plated WWII Interceptor Model Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003e\nThe Kawasaki Ki-61-Id Hien stood apart from other Japanese fighters of WWII with its liquid-cooled Ha-40 engine and sleek, streamlined profile. The Id variant extended the nose to house 20mm cannons, added 12.7mm wing guns, and became the most widely produced version of the Hien. Its high-altitude performance allowed Japanese pilots—most famously the 244th Air Group under Captain Teruhiko Kobayashi—to challenge incoming B-29 bombers in the defense of the home islands.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis 1\/48 scale model kit recreates the Ki-61-Id with crisp detail and a premium presentation thanks to silver-plated fuselage and wing parts. The plated finish and included camouflage decals simplify the painting process and allow modelers to achieve an eye-catching metallic base with ease. Inside the cockpit, ammunition cases, oil tank, and interior framing are faithfully represented, while the Ha-40 V12 engine includes supercharger detail for added realism.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nOptional open or closed canopy parts, two drop tanks, a seated pilot figure, and two unit marking options round out a kit that blends historical significance with rewarding bench time. This is a great choice for modelers who enjoy polished finishes, elegant aircraft designs, and unique WWII subjects.\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tamiya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50348987678967,"sku":"MH_TAM25424_HH","price":72.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/3324\/8759\/files\/e74f94d95e98282a38e2566356bee6b9.jpg?v=1765498418","url":"https:\/\/checkout.miniaturehobbies.com\/products\/kawasaki-ki-61-id-hien-tony","provider":"Miniature Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
