Historical Description

Yamato was one of the two largest battleships of all time and served in the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II. The ship was launched in 1940 and entered service in 1941. It became a symbol of Japanese naval power during the Pacific campaign – the ship was lost along with most of her crew during Operation Ten-Go in April 1945.

The Flyhawk set allows for the realistic recreation of deck details, superstructures, main and secondary artillery, and ship equipment as fitted between 1941-1945 – the World War II period.

• The set is suitable for intermediate and advanced modelers – assembly difficulty level 4/5. Requires precision, experience with photo-etched parts, and patience.
