Tamiya 78020 1/350 Yukikaze Naval Modelling Kit

The destroyer Yukikaze, from the Kagero class, earned a long service record during World War II. Entering service in January 1940, she took part in operations from the Philippines through the Solomon Islands and later at Okinawa. Remarkably she survived the war and came to be called the "lucky destroyer." This Tamiya 1/350 kit depicts Yukikaze as she appeared in the 1945 Ten Ichi Go operation.

Assembly Overview and Key Features

This kit is designed for shipbuilders who want a detailed replica. You can choose between waterline and full hull layouts for different displays. Polycaps let the guns and torpedo launchers rotate after assembly, and ABS masts provide extra strength. The kit includes photo-etched items for ladder and antenna detail and metal chains to improve scale realism. A display stand completes the package.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/350
  • Material: PS plastic, ABS, metal
  • Includes: Photo-etched parts, metal chains, display stand
  • Assembly: Requires glue and painting
The kit has fine parts and photo-etched pieces, so it is better suited to modellers with some experience or those willing to work carefully on details.
Metal chains are included for anchor lines and are best fixed with a small drop of cyanoacrylate or model cement depending on your preference.
Painting is required to achieve an authentic finish; the kit does not come pre-painted and needs glue and paints to complete.
