Tamiya 1/700 Ships - Aircraft Carrier Zuikaku Pearl Harbour - 31223

The Tamiya 1/700 Aircraft Carrier Zuikaku Pearl Harbor (31223) reproduces the IJN carrier that was one of the six carriers in the First Air Fleet that launched the attack on Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941. Zuikaku (Happy Crane) and her sister Shokaku were the two newest and most capable Japanese carriers of the Pearl Harbor raid, carrying the most experienced aviators in the IJN. Zuikaku survived through the entire war until she was finally sunk at the Battle of Cape Engaño during Leyte Gulf in October 1944.
