The Zero was a type of Japanese fighter plane, the Mitsubishi A6-M. It was fast and nimble, and heavily armed. At the start of the war it was better than the fighter planes the Allies had. But, it lacked any armor for the pilot or self-sealing fuel tanks, which made it vulnerable. By the end of the war the newer Allied fighter planes were better than the Zero.
