USS Virginia (CGN-38) was the lead ship of the Virginia-class nuclear-powered guided-missile cruisers, commissioned in 1976 to escort carrier battle groups with long-range air defence from twin Mk26 missile launchers firing Standard missiles and ASROC, later updated with Harpoon and Tomahawk capability.
Dragon's 1/700 kit reproduces the class's compact, heavily armed superstructure with its distinctive sensor arrays and twin launcher systems, moulded with the crisp slide-mould detail typical of Dragon's modern warship range.
A decal sheet for hull markings and a display stand are included, suitable for full-hull or waterline presentation.
A strong choice for Cold War-era US Navy fleet collections alongside Dragon's companion Spruance and Long Beach-class kits.
