USS Saratoga CV-3 1/700 Scale Detailed Model

The Tamiya 25179 presents a faithful 1/700 representation of the USS Saratoga, enhanced by Pontos Model detail-up parts to increase surface definition and small-scale authenticity for display builds.

Historical Role and Model Faithfulness

Saratoga played a significant role in Pacific operations and the kit reflects the late war configuration, capturing the ship profile and operational fittings seen around February 1945 at Iwo Jima.

Pontos Model Detail-Up and Brass Fittings

This special kit includes four etched sheets to reproduce fine railings, anti-aircraft details, and bridge fittings. Brass components and a pre-colored deck plate are provided, plus dry decals for historical deck markings.

Scale: 1/700

Do the supplied decals match the late war scheme?

The dry-transfer decals provided reproduce deck markings appropriate to the kit's referenced wartime period; careful application yields the best results.

How should I care for photo-etched parts during assembly?

Handle etched parts with tweezers, use a sharp blade to remove items from fret, and apply superglue sparingly to avoid visible residue on the finished model.
