[Product Introduction]
HASEGAWA 1/350 US Navy Escort Aircraft Carrier CVE-73 Gambier Bay. The Gambier Bay is a Casablanca-class ship. It consists of the smallest scale capable of operating carrier-based aircraft, and its structure is of a merchant ship type. - Fifty ships of the same type have been built, and it is also known that all 50 ships were mass-built in a year from the summer of 1943 at the proposal of Kaiser Shipyard. This ship was sunk during the Battle of Samar Island (October 25) during the Battle of Leyte Gulf from October 23 to 26, 1944, after being attacked by the Kurita Fleet, whose main force was the battleship Yamato. Battleship Yamato's actual combat history is very limited, so it can be said that it is a valuable US escort aircraft carrier that fought against battleship Yamato. Reproduction ship: US Navy 77th Task Force 4th Group 3rd Group Belongs to the Battle of Leyte Gulf Kit contents The hull is divided into left and right parts, and by inserting a girder inside, it is easy to assemble and has high stability. The deck is divided into two pieces. A structure that covers the entire bottom girder over the hull. The carvings on the deck surface are very fine and delicate. Carrier-based aircraft include 3 Avenger and 6 Wildcat. (The main wings can be expanded or folded, and the canopy is transparently molded.) - An exhibition stand is included.・Included bonus: Historical commentary, full-size color painted diagram of the model/main tension line reference diagram
