TAM-60785In summer of 1942 the Model 32 Zero fighter, which featured a superior high-altitude performance and an increased top speed, was introduced. However, its heavy design, reduced fuel capacity, and shorter wings resulted in a reduced flight range. In order to counter this problem, early 1943 saw the introduction of the Model 22 aircraft which came with a standard 11m wingspan and had additional inner-wing fuel tanks to regain a longer flight range. The Mitsubishi A6M3/3a Zero fighter was considered by many to be the most well-balanced Zero aircraft.
