Using a basic loop and List::Util. Most of the additional code is there for simple formatting.

use List::Util qw(max);

use warnings;
use strict;

my @array1 = (1..5, 10);
my @array2 = ('a'..'h');

my $length = max map {length} @array1;

for my $i (0..max($#array1, $#array2)) {
    printf "% ${length}s %s\n", $array1[$i] // '', $array2[$i] // '';
}

__END__
