As usual, a brief history of the airframe from Wikipedia:
The Mitsubishi F1M (Allied reporting name "Pete") was a Japanese reconnaissance floatplane of World War II. It was the last biplane type of the Imperial Japanese Navy, with 1,118 built between 1936 and 1944. The Navy designation was "Type Zero Observation Seaplane" (???????), not to be confused with the Type Zero Carrier Fighter or the Type Zero Reconnaissance Seaplane.
Design and development
The F1M1 was powered by the Nakajima Hikari MK1 radial engine, delivering 611 kW (820 hp), a maximum speed of 368 km/h (230 mph) and operating range of up to 1,072 km (670 mi) (when overloaded). It provided the Imperial Japanese Navy with a very versatile operations platform.
The F1M was armed with a maximum of three 7.7 mm (.303 in) machine guns (two fixed forward-firing and one flexible rear-firing) with provision for two 60 kg (132 lb) bombs.
Operational history
Damaged F1M2s at Rekata Bay, 1944.
The F1M was originally built as a catapult-launched reconnaissance float plane, specializing in gunnery spotting. The "Pete" took on a number of local roles including area-defense fighter, convoy escort, bomber, anti-submarine, maritime patrol, rescue and transport. The type fought dogfights in the Aleutians, the Solomons and several other theaters. In the New Guinea front, often used in aerial combat with the Allied bombers and Allied fighters.

The model itself is as you can see it's Hasegawa therefore .modelu this rather not have to recommend .staranność moldings and finesse executed elements alone speaks for itself.
Unfortunately, in the model that I made there was no photo-etched parts (Parts bombs, hooks, and strings with specific ends), thus also had to improvise and perform them with substitute materials.
