This is an injection-plastic ship model kit.
This is a 1/700 Injection Plastic Model Kit of the IJN 1st Class Cruiser Nisshin
It's a ship with a strange fate that was built in Italy for the Argentine Navy, and was sold and transferred to the Imperial Japanese Navy just before the outbreak of war between Russia and Japan.
The front main gun is different from the same type ship Kasuga. In the Battle of the Sea of Japan, she formed the first squadron with Kasuga, replacing two battleships that were struck and sunk off Lushun. One of the crew members wounded in this battle was the then Ensign Isoroku, who would later become Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Fleet.
