Mitsubishi A6M7 Zero 210-118, Yamato Museum Kure

Japan's famous carrier fighter, in a late-war version. This A6M7, tail code 210-118, served with the 210th Naval Air Group and ditched in Lake Biwa in August 1945 during a test flight; its pilot, Lt. Tsuneo Azuma, survived. Raised from the lake decades later and restored, it is now displayed at the Yamato Museum in Kure, Hiroshima Prefecture, the city where the battleship Yamato was built, which makes it an easy addition to a Hiroshima trip.
