HAS40026 1:350 Hasegawa IJN Light Cruiser YAHAGI - Operation Ten-Ichi-Go 1945

The Agano type light cruiser was built as a flagster of the Tonami Squadron by the fourth supplementary plan. It is a light cruiser late in the war deployed after the Midway battle. Yagi was completed at the end of 1943 as the third Agano shaped ship. The main gun is equipped with 3 15 cm consecutive clamps, 2 4 torpedo launcher tubes 61 cm, high angle cannon equipped with 2 long 8 cm cannon gangs. Beginning is the battle of the sea off Mariana in June 1944. As the 10th Squadron flagship I was escorting the 1st Air Squadron. And in April 1945, I banged Okinawa with battleship Yamato for the purpose of carrying out the Tian I No. operation. In developing "Yao", I repeatedly considered the ideal detail expression for 1/350 scale, realizing more realistic finish than the conventional 1/350 ship kit. For example, the torpedo launch tube shield is equipped with the same type as "Yukikaze", which is supposed to be exactly the same parts as originally ... but if you compare it, you can see it at a glance! The difference between the sharpness of the parts and the density is overwhelming. Jack stays of chimneys are also realistic shaping by sculpting with the best expression for 1/350! The hull is divided into left and right. With the structure that sandwiched support inside, stable assembly. Precise reproduction of the flight deck on which blast blowing was installed. Main skill turret, high angle cannon shield, torpedo launch tube shield are precision parts made of integral parts using slide mold. The main barrel tip is a slide mold to reproduce the muzzle. Complex vapor disposal around the chimney is precisely made into parts. Uses clear parts for windows of bridge bridge, windshield of shipboard machine, search light. The movable part is a rudder, main gun (turning / elevation angle), 6 m range finder, machine gun shooting device, 8 cm consecutive high angle cannon (turning / elevation angle), torpedo launch tube, catapult, It is possible to move the gun barrel of a high angle cannon to the vertical. The aircraft is equipped with 2 x 3 train Shimizu reconnaissance aircraft. The canopy is made as a separate part and it is molded in clear. The exhibition stands are improved from the specifications of Akagi, and we have adopted a structure to insert the fixing pin from the stand side and insert it into the hull.
