The Hobby Boss HB-82507 captures the USS Kidd DDG-993 in 1/1250 scale, showcasing features typical of the Spruance class. These destroyers were notable for adopting gas turbine drive using four LM-2500 engines with a combined output of 80,000 shaft horsepower, allowing speeds above 30 knots and strong anti-submarine capability. The kit expresses these design elements in a compact format suitable for display and reference.
Suited to hobbyists interested in naval history, the model reproduces hull form and key superstructure shapes, offering a focused build that honours the Spruance-class service during conflicts such as Desert Storm.
