Description This is an injection-plastic ship model kit. Here's a set of small model kits for you to build the 1998 third JMSDF escort flotilla in 1/3000 scale! The ships are molded in a grey that mimics the color used by the JMSDF, and are designed to be assembled with just a few small parts. Each year the ships and markings are changed, and so Fujimi has taken care to accurately reproduce the details from the 1998 configuration in this model kit. There are eight ships to be built in this kit, belonging to the 3rd escort group. Five classes are included: Haruna (x1), Kongo (x1), Hakaze (x1), Asagiri (x2), Hatsuyuki (x3). Two sea plates, molded in blue, are included for diorama display. All ships have glue free assembly. Brush painting is recommended for the scale of these kits.
