Developed as a single-seat interceptor by Mitsubishi, a total of 476 Raidens were built for the Japanese Air Force in the early 1940s. The 1820 hp radial engine gave the machine excellent climbing performance and a top speed of over 600 km/h.
In close collaboration with the Massoth team, Wolfgang and his sons Ronald and Robert, we were involved in the development of the Raiden on a scale of 1:3,7. After the first prototype, two more models have now been built.
All three raids are equipped with a MOKI 250 and the take-off weight of this huge model is well under 25kg. The flight characteristics are excellent and the performance in the air is simply impressive.
