Enter Leyte Gulf! We have commercialized the battleship Haruna, which faced the US military as part of the main assault force, in its appearance during Operation Sho-ichi! Following on from the 1/350 Haruna that was released so far during the Battle of the Mariana Coast. The final battle, the Battle of Hishima, has been recreated! The battleship Haruna was the third of the Kongo-class battleships, and was the first civilian ship to be built at the Kobe-Kawasaki Shipyard & Machinery Works, and was completed in 1919. She underwent two renovations leading up to the Pacific War, expanding her military capabilities. Among the battleships, the agile Haruna was active in all directions, including escorting task forces and firing naval gunfire at enemy airfields, and in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the last decisive battle for the Japanese Navy, she was seen in a brave figure equipped with numerous anti-aircraft machine guns. I participated. After that, she was used as an air defense battery in the Inland Sea, and in July 1945, she was attacked by a US carrier-based aircraft outside Kure Port and landed badly damaged, ending her life. □Unlike the standard scale 1/700 scale for ship models, it is a big scale model, so it reproduces detailed shapes. □The product is mainly composed of a left and right split hull that can be finished as a full-hull type. □The additional machine gun turret reproduces the difference in shape between the 2nd, 3rd and 4th turrets. □The shape of the machine gun turret around the chimney has been properly reproduced. □The additional machine gun sponson near the compass bridge has a distinctive shape, and has been made three-dimensional with a new mold. □There are two No. 13 electric probes installed on the rear mast, and the mast and its support rack are all new parts. □ Newly designed parts are included after reconsideration of the rear bridge and the area around the backup firing device. □The 60cm signal light added to the lower part of the bridge has been made into parts along with a support plate with a light hole structure. □The No. 22 electric probe installed on both sides of the bridge is a newly designed part along with the additional mount. *This product is a kit that requires assembly and painting. *Adhesive and tools are required separately for assembly and painting.
