Description
Capture the final form of the Mogami-class heavy cruiser Mikuma as it appeared during the pivotal Battle of Midway in 1942. This highly detailed 1/700 scale kit offers an authentic recreation of the vessel after its conversion from a light cruiser to a heavy cruiser, featuring the signature 20.3cm twin gun turrets that replaced its original triple 15.5cm mounts.
The kit focuses on the specific structural nuances of the 1942 configuration, including the intricate aircraft handling deck located at the stern and the detailed bridge structure. Precision molding brings out the fine textures of the linoleum decks, the lattice-work of the masts, and the complex anti-aircraft battery layout. As a waterline model, it is designed with a flat bottom to sit perfectly on a display base, making it an ideal choice for naval dioramas or fleet displays.
Assembly involves multi-part construction for the main turrets, allowing for realistic positioning. The inclusion of ship-borne reconnaissance seaplanes adds an extra layer of realism to the flight deck area. Decals are provided to accurately mark the hull and the included aircraft, ensuring a historically faithful finish for collectors and naval enthusiasts.
