Hasegawa 40152 - 1/450 J.M.S.D.F. DDG ATAGO: Product Brief

The Hasegawa 40152 kit renders the J.M.S.D.F. DDG ATAGO at 1/450 scale with focus on the vessel's modern superstructure and fittings. It is offered to modellers who prefer accurate, compact representations of naval vessels.

Historical Notes and Model Accuracy

ATAGO-class destroyers carry sophisticated sensors and missile systems, and the kit reflects those signature traits through detailed parts and a layout faithful to the ship's profile. The result is a model that illustrates contemporary naval design at small scale.

Construction Advice and Display Options
