The Aoshima AO-01240 presents a faithful small-scale rendition of a Kiyokawa Maru-class seaplane tender from the WWII period. The model focuses on the ship's structural layout and service role, giving modellers a compact subject for historically minded projects.
Components reproduce the vessel's hull form and aircraft handling fittings with care. This kit offers a good foundation for rigging, weathering, and detailing to achieve a convincing period appearance.
While the build is rewarding, it requires patience during assembly of the finer parts. Once complete, the model is an effective addition to a naval collection or museum-style display shelf.
