Mikro Mir MM35-025 Kaiten type 10 Japan suicide torpedo Scale 1:35 Plastic Model Torpedo Kit

Kaiten Type 10 plastic model kit in 1/35 scale by Mikro Mir represents a late World War II Japanese manned torpedo concept developed during the final stage of the conflict. The kit depicts the compact underwater craft designed for a single operator and is supplied as an unpainted and unassembled plastic model kit.

The Kaiten program was initiated by the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II to explore small manned underwater craft based on torpedo technology. The Type 10 was one of the late experimental developments of this program and reflected attempts to simplify construction and adapt the concept for coastal operations.

Kaiten Type 10 - Late World War II Manned Torpedo Concept

The design used a cylindrical hull derived from torpedo construction with a small cockpit section for the operator and an internal propulsion system. Although the Type 10 remained largely experimental, it represents one of several specialized naval engineering projects developed during the closing period of the war.

For modelers: The streamlined cylindrical body benefits from careful seam alignment and smooth finishing to maintain the clean shape typical of torpedo-based underwater craft.
