Mitsubishi and Nakajima were the main ship fighter next to the 96 wars and the plan request form of 12 fighter fighter aircraft was issued on October 5, 1947. Mitsubishi has started designing with Jiro Horikoshi engineer as the design master.

● Horikoshi engineer made designs further stepped down, such as reducing weight and resistance, based on the technology cultivated in the 96 war battle. In addition, adopting constant speed propeller, retractable leg, split structure, waterdrop type sealed windshield, streamlined falling augmentation tank, Crucie wireless returning direction measurement device, use of ESD (super duralumin), wing interior equipment of 20 mm engine cannon A new trial was included and 12 ship wars (A6 M 1) Unit 1 was completed with Rising 13 model (780 horsepower output).

The first flight took place in April 2002, Unit 1 recorded good results with a speed exceeding 491 km / h during the in-house test, after that the propeller was changed from 2 wings to 3 wings, the elevator control device The minor refurbishment such as the deterioration of the steel quality was added, and in September we were handed over to the Navy and the review was started.
● Immediately after the start of the test, it was decided to call A6M2 an increased prototype after Unit 3, which had its tailplane arrangement changed by replacing the engine with Sakae 12 type (lifting power 940 horsepower), and during the examination an aerial disassembly accident occurred Although it was, it was recognized that it was a good airplane, and A6M2 was adopted as type 1 fighter aircraft of Type 0 No. 1.

In addition, because there was no folding mechanism at the wing tip of the 11 type used as a land fighter aircraft, a mechanism for folding the wing tip 50 cm each after the 67 th machine was added so as to facilitate handling on the aircraft carrier Did.
- Moreover, it is adopted as the 0 type fighter aircraft fighter type 2 (Zero type fighter aircraft 21 type ・ renamed as A 6 M 2 b later) by further carrying out outfit as a ship war such as cruise radio returning azimuth measuring device and landing hook etc. .

● These zero fights were manipulated by skilled crews, demonstrating the strength that seems invincible at the frontiers of the areas.
