1/350 IJN Light Cruiser Yahagi Operation Ten Ichi-Go 1945

Hasegawa adds to their 1/350 IJN fleet with this release of the light cruiser Yahagi as it appeared during Operation Ten Ichi-Go, the suicidal mission of the IJN battleship Yamato and its escorts to defend Okinawa in April of 1945. The Yahagi was lost in the ensuing battle. The detail of this kit is phenomenal, as on all of Hasegawa's recent 1/350 kits. Includes a pamphlet on the history of the Yahagi, plus a marking/painting/main rigging reference chart. A full-hull model, with elegant display stands. Instructions are in Japanese and English. And be sure not to miss the excellent photo-etched detail sets, sold separately and linked below!
