1/700 IJN BB Hyuga 1941 Version
Code: HSGWL118 Series: Waterline![]() |
Originally laid down in 1918, the Hyuga was completely modernized in 1936. Following the Japanese defeat at Midway, she was hastily reconfigured as a half-carrier in 1943 (flight deck to the rear of the vessel) and was in that configuration when she was sunk at her moorings in Kure by a US air attack on July 24, 1945. This completely new kit represents the ship as she appeared before the conversion to hybrid carrier.
