Aoshima A003353 1/700 IJN Destroyer Kagerou 1941

30 years have passed since the first release in the now-famous 1/700 Water Line Series. The manufacturers involved in this endeavour have now begun to replace their old kits with newly-tooled models. Kagerou is the main ship of the Kagerou-class DD, and fought several battles, most notably the battle of Tassafuronga. The Kagerou-class DD was the latest design of the IJN fleet destroyer, with improved speed, longer cruise range, and powerful armament. Aoshima's new kit meets today's molding standards and the design itself reflects recent research, depicting the ship's early form (from 1941). The kit on the whole blows away the quality of older versions of the same kit!

This is an injection-plastic ship model kit.
