Historically, I think this means Zero Type 21 (Iwamoto Squadron) => Zero Type 52C (Iwamoto Squadron) Iwamoto Squad is another squad I love represented here, since he (Iwamoto) was another Zero ace pilot, well known in many air combats and also related to Zuikaku too. :) What do you mean "another" Zero ace? He was THE biggest carrier-based ace pilot of the IJN.

Iwamoto Tetsuzou had 202 official victories, only second to Nishizawa Hiroyoshi's (a land-based pilot) 429. He also had 80+ individual kills, more than Nishizawa's 49.
