Tamiya 31408 - 1/700 IJN DD Shikinami  [31408]

1/700 Japanese Destroyer Shikinami

This really is an assembly kit of this Shikinami, which, after getting involved in over 10 resupply missions to Guadalcanal, plus actions such as the Battle of Sunda Strait and Battle of the Eastern Solomons, finally succumbed to U.S. submarine assault in September 1944. She ended up being the 2nd Type II "Special Type" destroyer therefore the model illustrates the ship as she appeared with additional AA armament. Details such as the funnel, searchlights, and masts will also be sharply reproduced. Modellers also can appreciate using parts from the woman sis ship Ayanami to backdate the ship to when she was initially launched.
