| − | ==Description==
| + | '''A6M''' may refer to: |
| − | The '''Mitsubishi A6M''', designated as '''Mitsubishi Navy Type 0 carrier fighter''', was a series of carrier-based fighter aircraft developed by Mitsubishi for the Imperial Japanese Navy in World War II. It was a long-range, highly manoeuvrable fighter that dominated the early stages of the war. However, it became outdated as newer Allied fighters ([[F4U (Family)|F4U]], [[F6F (Family)|F6F]], [[P-51 (Family)|P-51]], ...) surpassed its performance and armour. The A6M was also used as an interceptor, fighter-bomber and kamikaze. More than 10,000 Zeros were produced during the war, making it the most numerous Japanese combat aircraft.
