The '''Mitsubishi A6M Zero''' was a lightweight [[:Category:Military aircraft|fighter aircraft]] operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service (IJNAS) from 1940 to 1945. The origin of its official designation was that "A" signified a carrier-based fighter, "6" for the sixth such model built for the Imperial Navy, and "M" for the manufacturer, Mitsubishi. The A6M was usually referred to by the Allies as the "Zero" — a name that was frequently misapplied to other Japanese fighters, such as the Nakajima Ki-43 — as well as other codenames and nicknames, including "Zeke", "Hamp" and "Hap". | The '''Mitsubishi A6M Zero''' was a lightweight [[:Category:Military aircraft|fighter aircraft]] operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service (IJNAS) from 1940 to 1945.
