This is a 1/48 Scale Kyushu J7WI Shinden Plastic Model Kit from Hasegawa.
The J7W1 Shinden was developed by the Japanese in the closing months of WWII
as an aircraft which would be effective against the ever more numerous
American heavy bombers like the B-29. The aircraft employed a radical pusher
configuration with the engine in the rear and also featured canards instead
of a conventional tailplane. The prototype undertook three flight tests in
August 1945 but the war ended before the types potential could be fully
explored.
