Trumpeter 05747 USS San Francisco CA-38 1944 Description

The Trumpeter 05747 USS San Francisco CA-38 1944 kit models a New Orleans class heavy cruiser in 1:700 scale, reflecting the form and camouflage used in the later stages of World War II. It is crafted for modellers who appreciate compact, accurate naval subjects.

Service Record Summary

New Orleans class ships were central to many Pacific operations and the USS San Francisco earned significant battle recognition. This kit reproduces the ship's 1944 appearance including its Measure 33/13d paint scheme.

Kit Composition

Containing 202 plastic parts and featuring a one-piece slide-molded upper hull, the kit focuses on fit and realistic lines. No metal or resin upgrades are included, so modellers may wish to source aftermarket parts to enhance small-scale details.

Scale Display Tips

At 256.2 mm overall length the model integrates well with other 1:700 ships for period displays or dioramas and benefits from careful painting and subtle weathering to convey operational wear.
