The Japanese Zero was a fighter that relied on lightweight. The success of the aircraft was based on the fact that they reduced as much weight as possible. This is also seen in the RX-7.

Sucks theres not translation for the video.

They also copied ideas from the chassis of the zero, i.e. ways the zero shaved weight.
