Re: Chinese A6M2
Try the original Bunrin-Do series, number 10. There is a photo of an aircraft in a hangar, cowling off. However, the same photo is in Mikesh's Zero: Japan's Legendary Fighter from Motorbooks, where it is described as "allegedly the No.2 test-manufactured Zero....A6M1". The most noticeable feature is the 2-blade propeller on the Zuisei Type 13 engine, only on the first two aircraft. All subsequent examples being A6M2 with the Sakae.
Some older sources confuse the A6M2 Model 11 with the A6M1 - it seems this is not so. There may be more in more recent sources.
