Hobby Boss HB-87017 IJN I-400 1/700 Scale Submarine Model Kit - Detailed Build  [HB-87017]

IJN I-400 Background and Scale Representation

The IJN I-400 class represented a bold chapter in wartime naval design, being the largest submarines until the nuclear age emerged in the 1960s. They were designed to carry three Aichi M6A1 Seiran aircraft and launch them quickly, though extensive operations like a Panama Canal attack never went ahead.

The Hobby Boss 1/700 kit renders the submarine in compact scale with attention to deck detail and aircraft stowage. It is well matched to modellers who enjoy historically informed builds and precise finishing.
