Reference full-hull kit: Fujimi FJ-45215 1/700 Chokai

This 1/700 scale full-hull plastic model portrays the Imperial Japanese Navy heavy cruiser Chokai and is positioned as a reference-level subject within Fujimi's small-ship kit range.

Chokai served as a heavy cruiser in the Imperial Japanese Navy across the mid-20th century and remained active through World War II. The ship paired notable gun armament with speed for fleet action and escort tasks. Wartime modifications and photographic records provide the primary sources modellers use when recreating the ship's appearance.

The kit is supplied as an all-hull edition rather than a waterline variant, suitable for stands or diorama displays showing the hull profile. Moulded parts include separate superstructure elements and a photo-etched fret for fine railings and fittings. Expect to work with small components and precise alignment when assembling rigging and deck details. Reference materials are recommended for selecting correct paint schemes and marking options.
