Handsome 1/720 Representation of the U.S.S. Carl Vinson CVN-70

The Italeri 5506S presents a compact 1/720 scale model of the U.S.S. Carl Vinson CVN-70, a Nimitz-class carrier commissioned in 1982 and used across a range of missions including humanitarian deployments. This release portrays the ship as it looked in 1999, offering a clear reference point for builders interested in that era.

Parts are arranged to reflect the carrier's major features and allow careful assembly and painting. The completed kit sits well with other modern naval models and makes an attractive shelf display for enthusiasts.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/720
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
  • Decals: Included for accurate markings
Use plastic cement or a thin liquid solvent designed for polystyrene. These produce strong bonds and minimise visible seams when parts are correctly aligned.
Take care with small fittings on the flight deck and mast. Dry-fit parts before gluing and use tweezers for precise placement to avoid misalignment.
Once decals are set and dry, apply a thin layer of clear varnish or sealant to lock them in place and protect against handling and light wear.
Yes, careful painting with fine brushes and selective use of washes will bring out panel lines and deck texture without needing advanced equipment.
