Wrong!

It is the last thing that 5,000+ Japanese pilots saw before their plane was shot down.

I would say that it is a picture of the American version of the A6M.

I am fairly certain it is an F6F-3.  The main reason is the style of markings on it.  It has the blue over gray and the early style national markings that were phased out in early 1943 for the 3 tone scheme.  As far as my research goes, no -5 ever had that kind of scheme on it.
