The Shokaku-class aircraft carriers were planned under the same Maru 3 plan as the battleship Yamato-class, and the second ship, "Zuikaku," was completed at Kawasaki Heavy Industries in Kobe in September 1941, before the start of the Pacific War.
Together with the lead ship "Shokaku," she formed the 5th Carrier Division and participated in the attack on Pearl Harbor.
The Battle of the Coral Sea marked the first ever naval battle between aircraft carriers.
With the loss of the Akagi and three other ships, which were the mainstays of the air force, the Zuikaku remained a central force in the carrier task force until the Battle of Leyte Gulf in October 1944, but was sunk by American air attacks during that battle.

This model replicates the dimensions of the actual aircraft (10mm wide, 6mm wide, and 3mm wide) in 1/700 scale. It includes decals for aircraft markings.
