The A6MK Akuma-class Space Frigate ("K" in the designation stands for "1000") is a spaceship currently under development by Mitsubishi's Space Engineering Division. It is based on the A6M96 Kotaka (dubbed Millenium Falcon for its space-faring capabilities) and the derivant Ragnarok-class Space-Airships of Kotaka. The development and production of the Akuma is a long-term goal of Mitsubishi, sponsored by the government of Imperial Japan to keep up with the increasing spatial military presence of Nazi Germany. The final ship will be armed with a single, large beam cannon, a beam weapon that is expected to be the successor of the Wave Motion Cannon currently under development under the Directed Energy Weapons Development Project of Mitsubishi. The name was presumably given in honour to Mitsubishi's flight ace, Akuma.

Only one Akuma-class space frigate is to be exported, the Termagant, currently under construction by Mitsubishi's subsidiary Supermarine and is designated to be exported to Zion.
