The Yushukan war museum, next to the controversial Yasukuni shrine, paints an strange picture of Japan's role in World War II. This Zero was built in Nagoya in late 1943. It served in Rabaul where it was abandoned in 1945. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
