Tamiya 1/350 Ships - 1/350 Yamato Japanese Battleship (2013) - 78030

The Tamiya 1/350 Yamato Japanese Battleship 2013 Edition (78030) reproduces the world's largest battleship in Tamiya's updated 2013 tooling — featuring enhanced accuracy, improved detail, and new part arrangements over the original Yamato kit. The Yamato's story is one of the most dramatic in naval history: the most powerful warship ever built, she was sunk by US carrier aircraft on Operation Ten-Go in April 1945 with the loss of over 3,000 of her crew. This 2013 edition captures her at the height of her power in Pacific War configuration.

Kit highlights:

• Accurate 1/350 Yamato in updated 2013 tooling
• Enhanced detail and accuracy over original kit
• Nine 46cm guns and full secondary armament
• Pacific War specification options
• Complement with deck sheet (12645) and metal gun barrels (12643)
