Tamiya 78029 1/350 USS Missouri BB-63 - Historic Battleship Recreated

The USS Missouri (BB-63) is renowned for hosting the formal surrender that ended World War II and for continued service after being commissioned in 1944. Modernisation in the 1980s saw her return to front-line tasks, including the use of Tomahawk missiles in the Gulf War.

This Tamiya 78029 kit depicts the Missouri in her 1991 condition, incorporating revised parts to reflect upgrades and contemporary fittings. It is intended for modellers who prioritise historical accuracy and fine detail.
