Brand new model kit. Ships from the US.
Aoshima's "Waterline" model-kit line has now been renewed with a higher level of precision! This is a 1/700-scale kit of the Fuyutsuki, the eighth Akizuki-class destroyer that was built as an air-defense destroyer and, together with her sister ship Suzutsuki, directly covered the battleship Yamato in Operation Tenichi-Go. The parts that are different from the earlier model of the Akizuki-class destroyer, such as the intake ports around the chimney, are simple and easy to assemble, and can be accurately reproduced with a parts configuration that keeps the main points down. Various equipment such as the 10cm high-angle gun and carrier-based boats, which are characteristic of Akizuki-class destroyers, have been newly designed. Slide-molding is used to create dense precision; in addition to armaments such as destroyer main guns and machine guns, carrier-based aircraft and various equipment have also been updated. The outfitting parts are newly molded, too, including:
Type 96 25mm twin machine gun
Type 96 25mm triple machine gun
70cm signal searchlight
Direction finder antenna
Type 98 10cm twin high-angle gun
Type 92 quadruple torpedo tube
Type 94 depth charge thrower
Quartrant davit
7m fireboat
7m cutter
Anchor (small)
