Fujimi 1/700 IJN Aircraft Carrier Taiho No.21 Model

The Fujimi 1/700 scale kit of the IJN Aircraft Carrier Taiho No.21 presents a carefully modelled small-scale version of this WWII Japanese carrier. The kit highlights the carrier's armored deck concept and overall silhouette while providing parts designed for a clean build.

Historical Notes and Scale Details

Designed to capture key elements of the Taiho, this kit reproduces hull contours and deck spaces in scale-appropriate detail. Modelled surfaces and part fit aim to support realistic finishing and display accuracy without adding speculative features.

Modeling Experience and Display Value

Completion results in an elegant display piece that complements collections of mid-20th century naval vessels. When finished with paint and weathering, the model conveys the engineering intent of the original ship.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included, recommended for realism
The kit does include small aircraft parts to outfit the flight deck and hangars for a complete representation.
Basic modelling tools such as cutters, tweezers and fine files are sufficient, though magnification and fine brushes help with small-scale detailing.
Apply thin washes, controlled drybrushing and subtle chipping to suggest wear; keep effects restrained to suit the 1/700 scale without overpowering the model.
