USS Missouri Battleship Mk.7 16`/50 Gun Turret No.1 (Plastic model) - HobbySearch Military Model Store

This item is limited to 3 per household.

--Missouri is the third Iowa-class battleship of the US Navy.
--The 16-inch 50-caliber gun Mk.7 mounted on the Iowa class was developed based on the North Carolina-class and South Dakota-class 16-inch 45-caliber gun Mk.6.
--Mk.7 used the same ammunition as Mk.6, but it has been increased in power by making it longer-barreled and changing the charge to a low-pressure charge for long-barreled to gain initial velocity.
--The turret and hydraulic system have also been redesigned accordingly.
――The long-barreled Mk.7 has a faster muzzle velocity, which reduces the effect of wind, has a longer range than the Mk.6, and has improved power and shooting accuracy at close range.

--With etched parts
--Type 2 marking included
--Base included
--Overall length (from the tip of the barrel to the rear end of the base): 403mm
