Mitsubishi A6M2 Reisen (Zero), (Serial No. 11593).  This Nakajima-built A6M2 was found in Papua New Guinea, near the city of Kavieng on New Ireland, and was probably one of the aircraft delivered to Rabaul and operated at Kavieng by the 6th Kokutai (Squadron) and later by the 253rd Kokutai. It is painted to represent a section leader’s aircraft from the aircraft carrier Zuiho during the Battle of the Bismarck Sea, March 1943.  It was placed on display in the NMUSAF in 2004
