B5N2 Kate Wing Fold Ribs
The set consits of all new wing rib structure for both the fixed and folded wing sections.

B5N2 Kate Type 99 Bomb (800kg) Upgrade

B5N2 Kate Type 98 Bomb (250kg) with rack (2 pcs)

This looks interesting. I still have the good ol' Hasegawa kit and I wonder how would these sets fit it. At least torpedoes and bombs should be universal both for Airfix and Hasegawa kits.
