Why Choose This
Injection-molded parts alone cannot capture the delicate fittings of a 1944 Japanese destroyer. You receive radar components, boarding ladders, and weapon details that transform the base kit's appearance. Two ships' worth of photo-etched parts mean you can upgrade both Akizuki and Hatsuzuki from one purchase. Designed specifically for Fujimi's 1/700 Kan NEXT Series No.16 kit.
