Plastic model kit, assembly required. Glue, paint and finishing supplies not included.

The Zero Fighter Model 52A was produced not only by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries but also by Nakajima Aircraft. The Type 99 20mm No. 2 gun Model 3, which was a drum magazine type like the Mitsubishi Model 52, was changed to a belt-fed Model 4 on the Model 52A, allowing it to carry 125 rounds of ammunition. At this time, the gun's mounting position was shifted slightly forward, causing the gun's mechanism to protrude from the leading edge of the wing, so a trapezoidal cover was added, and a teardrop-shaped bulge was provided under the wing because the drum magazine could not be contained within it, but the bulge was removed when the gun was changed to a belt-fed type. These are the external differences between the original Model 52 and the Model 52A. Another difference between the Mitsubishi and Nakajima models is the length of the heat-resistant plate attached near the exhaust port of the thrust-type single exhaust pipe, with the Nakajima model being longer than the Mitsubishi version. Furthermore, the Nakajima Model 52A is different from the Mitsubishi Model 52A in that it is equipped with a larger spinner due to a change in the propeller governor, and a drop tank with a different suspension method. 

This model kit from Fine Molds carefully examines these small differences from numerous photographs and recreates them using newly molded parts. The markings reproduce the aircraft that appeared in the wartime film "Torpedo Squadron Dispatch," which belonged to the 653rd Air Group, which fought as a carrier aircraft on the aircraft carrier Zuikaku.

OK short read
Format: Kindle
Reasonable short read. Have to doubt the facts since the author writes FDR was alive in the 1950's and he leaves out the Haitian genocide in his narrative.

Good general snapshot

A fascinating read
Format: Kindle
I found Modern Africa to be a fascinating read, because, having grown up in the 80’s, places such as Libya and Ethiopia were always in the news, but I didn’t understand their backstories. Modern Africa does a great job of laying out these stories, but in a way that doesn’t overwhelm the reader. I look forward to reading more from the author! They do a great job of making history relevant and make me want to learn more!

Quick Read - Highlights Version
Format: Kindle
The author does a decent job of overviewing what took place during this time period. You will learn how many different events connect and see what caused various developments in Africa to take place. However, it was not as in depth as I would have liked and certainly could not cover everything that transpired during this time. Probably a decent survey book for high school students, but as an adult, I would have liked to see more elaboration and depth for each segment. 124 pages is a relatively short amount of space to cover so many topics. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
