Every Japanese aircraft had a Manufacture's
Data plate, most were on the inside of the
fuselage, stamped in metal the information
would be: For example
Place of Manufacture: Mitsubishi Heavy Industry Co.
Name: Carrier-borne Fighter Plane
Model:A6M5 Model 52
Engine: Nakajima NK1F Sakae 21
Serial Number 4240
Net Weight Empty in Kgs.
Load in Kgs.
Maxium Weight in Kgs.
Date completed
Inspection Marks
Most aircraft had more than one data plate on
the aircraft.
I don't understand Japanese, so I can assume
the stenciling has some of that info.
