Trumpeter 1/700 Ships - USS Lexington CV-2 Aircraft Carrier 1942 - 05716

USS Lexington CV 2 was one of the US Navy's first fleet carriers, built on a hull originally laid down as a battlecruiser. Affectionately called Lady Lex, she was lost at the Battle of the Coral Sea in May 1942.

Trumpeter's kit builds Lexington as she appeared in 1942 in 1/700 scale (1:700), making a compact waterline display of an early carrier. It suits naval modellers collecting Pacific War ships. Paints, glue and tools are not included.
