Description
Recreate one of the final aircraft carriers of the Imperial Japanese Navy with this precision 1/700 scale model kit. The Unryu was the lead ship of its class, designed as a modified and simplified version of the successful Hiryu to allow for rapid construction during the later stages of World War II. This kit captures the ship's distinctive profile, featuring the starboard-side island and the specific anti-aircraft armament layout used during its 1944 service.
As part of the Toku series, this model offers high levels of detail with parts engineered for a realistic waterline appearance. The flight deck and hull sections are molded with fine surface textures, providing an accurate base for painting and weathering. The kit is designed for naval enthusiasts who appreciate historical accuracy in a scale that allows for extensive fleet building.
The assembly process is supported by clear illustrations, guiding you through the construction of the bridge, funnel, and defensive platforms. To complete the look of a functioning carrier, the set includes a selection of scale aircraft typically assigned to the Unryu class air wing.
- Highly detailed plastic parts representing the 1944 configuration
- Waterline hull design suitable for sea-level dioramas
- Includes scale carrier-based aircraft for deck population
