TAMIYA 1/700 JAPANESE AIRCRAFT CARRIER JUNYO

Tamiya 1/700 Japanese Aircraft Carrier Junyo Plastic Model Kit

The Tamiya Japanese Aircraft Carrier Junyo is a 1/700 scale plastic assembly model kit of the unusual carrier converted from a passenger liner.

Please note this is an unassembled plastic model kit requiring assembly; paints, cement and hobby tools are not included and are required to complete the model.

This is an assembly kit of the Junyo, an aircraft carrier converted from a passenger liner in July 1942. In October of the same year, she participated in the Battle of Santa Cruz, where her aircraft were involved in the sinking of the U.S. aircraft carrier Hornet. The distinctive passenger liner bow and the 26-degree forward-angled funnel integrated with the bridge island have been accurately reproduced.
