Description

This is certainly model kit of Japanese Navy Destroyer Kagero. The lead ship of Kagero course of destroyers included 19 altogether. Laid down in September 1937, the Kagero was completed in only over 24 months and had been commissioned in November 1939. Whilst the Kagero is considered as a fruitful destroyer design, like numerous of the girl counterparts she actually wound up largely doing escort work, sheepherding providers toward their objective, as she did in the assaults on Pearl Harbor. Later in the war she saw action on the "Tokyo Express" runs as destroyers were tasked with providing and reinforcing beleaguered Japanese garrisons in Solomons. She came across the woman end within hand of U.S. mines in 1943.

Key design options that come with the kit
The aft deck features the excess twin 12.7cm weapon turret seen on early- WWII Kagero ships (it absolutely was replaced by antiaircraft weapons later on inside war). Brand new parts depict the paravane and loading training gun, plus an updated deck surface, to accommodate the latest parts.

The efficient, uncluttered original Kagero deck is captured with great detail. New parts depict the connection without radar space. Clear components are used for windows. The early- WWII Kagero mast features less radar equipment than that on late-war ships including the model kit for the Japanese Destroyer Yukikaze.
