Hobby Boss 87018 JMSDF SS Harushio Model Kit - 1:700 Scale Collector Kit  [HB-87018]

Hobby Boss 1:700 JMSDF Harushio Submarine Overview

The Hobby Boss 1:700 kit renders the JMSDF Harushio submarine in precise small-scale form. As a third generation submarine, the Harushio class is noted for its double-shell construction and tear-drop hull profile, details that the kit seeks to replicate.

Historical Development and Key Features

The Harushio was developed from the Yushio family with enhancements to acoustic performance and underwater handling. Visually, it is set apart by the sonar projection at the bow and a roughly one metre hull extension to create additional internal space, which the model reflects.

Who Will Appreciate This Model

Model collectors and enthusiasts of naval history will value this kit for its faithful outline and small footprint. Its 1:700 scale makes it easy to integrate into cabinets or group displays alongside other vessels.
