A total of 1,329 units of all variants were produced between 1942 and 1945, facilitated by the launch of the first mass production of Japanese combat aircraft in China. The single-seat Ki-79A version was used for advanced training of Imperial Air Force pilots, playing a vital role in Japan’s strategy for preparing aircrew during the intense Pacific front campaigns. Its characteristic Hitachi engine provided a maximum speed of up to 340 km\/h and a range of over 900 km, combined with compact dimensions and lightweight construction. Ki-79A aircraft were mainly used in Japan and China for training and numerous practice flights, and in the later stages of the war, in kamikaze missions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eThe RS Models 1\/48 scale kit is a detailed replica featuring realistic panel lines, a detailed cockpit interior, and armament options.
