Mitsubishi made the A6M “Zeke” (Zero).
Fast little bugger. No armor, though.
Meant to finish the “Mitsubishi” thought train with “and now they make cars...”
only 13 survived according to this source: Mitsubishi not the major manufacture?

By the end of WW2, 10,937 Zero fighters were manufactured. Mitsubishi built only 3,880, while the majority of the remainder were built by Nakajima, the company that declined to bid on the original request for such a fighter.
After the war, most surviving A6M Zero fighters were destroyed. A few of them were sent to the United States for testing. Many of them were abandoned across the various Pacific islands, rusting very quickly in jungle climates. Only about 13 were available for museum display today, such as the Zero fighter on display at Yushukan museum adjacent to the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo, Japan. Only a very small number are in flyable condition today.
