Product Description
-[Kurama] was commissioned in 1981 as the second ship of the anti-submarine helicopter escort ship Shirane type.
-Although it is an expanded and improved version of the previous Haruna type, it was a debut with a large computer introduced in the CIC, which markedly improved information processing capability.
-In addition, it has attracted attention by installing Sea Sparrow Short SAM and 20 mm CIWS Phalanx for air defense and defense of individual ships.
-Later, the onboard helicopter was changed from HSS-2B to SH-60J to further improve the anti-submarine ability.
-The Shirane type was the largest escort ship until the appearance of the Kongo type, and [Kurama] has long been active as the core of the fleet, but DDH-184 [Kaga] was commissioned in March 2017. With that, he finished his role and was retired in the same month despite being regretted.
-The kit reproduces the appearance just before retirement.
-The satellite antenna installation position, fin stabilizer, bilge keel shape and other differences from the same type ship [Shirane] are also reproduced.
-The attached etching parts include parts such as mast truss, mast flat, rattle, heli-rotor and flag pole.
-Offshore / full hull model selectable
-Total length about 227 mm
-1 ship
