Aoshima #AO-00095 - I.J.N. Katsuragi 1/700 scale carrier model  [AO-00095]

Summary: Aoshima 1/700 I.J.N. Aircraft Carrier Katsuragi

Aoshima's 1/700 rendition of the I.J.N. Aircraft Carrier Katsuragi provides a precise small-scale project for naval modelling fans. Representing an Unryu-class carrier, the kit reflects wartime production priorities and allows builders to reproduce a historically informed miniature ship.

Operational history and kit accuracy

Completed late in the conflict, Katsuragi saw little action, but the ship's design remains relevant for historians and modellers. This kit captures essential shapes and features so builders can produce a convincing scale example.

Construction considerations

The 1/700 format means parts are finely moulded and assembly benefits from careful preparation. Glue assembly and painting are required to complete the model, and tidy finishing will greatly improve the appearance.
