The museum acquired the A6M in 1991and it has been on display suspended from the ceiling. In 2019 in conjunction with the rearranging of other aircraft, the Zero was taken out to the restoration hangar for a checkup and cleaning. It has since been restored to its location in the main building.

The N1K2-J was a land-based derivative of a floatplane design by Kawanishi, entering service in early 1944 and proving to be one of the best dogfighting aircraft produced by either side. This example was flown by the elite 343 Kōkūtai naval fighter unit and was shipped to the US in November 1945 and assigned evaluation identity FE-306, later T2-306. One of four surviving, it was placed in storage at NAS Norfolk in 1947, going on show at the New England Air Museum in 1974 and moving to Pensacola in 1992

Only extant Seiran (Clear Sky Storm) on display at Udvar-Hazy Center. This is the last of 28 built that was ferried by Lt. Kazuo Akatsuka to Yokosuka and surrendered in 1945. Designed by Toshio Ozaki who planned the B7A Ryūsei, the floatplane was powered by a 12-cyl liquid-cooled 1,400 hp Atsuta 32 engine that was a licence-built DB601A. These aircraft of 631 Kokutai were to be launched via catapult from 122 m I-400-class submarines capable of carrying three Seirans. Operations were planned to bomb Panama Canal, the US fleet at Ulithi Atoll and US cities, forestalled by the end of the war.

Shusui (Swinging Sword) on display at Planes of Fame Air Museum. Japan acquired manufacturing rights for the Me-163 but no intact examples reached, all being sunk aboard submarines. A single engine and instruction manual reached Japan, which managed to construct a functional copy within months. MXY8 Akigusa training gliders were completed, and the prototype J8M1 powered by a Toko Ro.2 rocket motor took to the air on 7 Jul 1945 but crashed after the engine flamed out, killing the pilot. The 900 kmh interceptor would have been armed with two wing-mounted 30mm cannon and flown by 312 Kokutai.
