This product has been developed for those seeking to recreate Imperial Navy fleet vessels from World War II with the highest level of detail, both in terms of appearance and historical accuracy.

Historical Background and Application:
In the second half of World War II, in response to combat experience, the IJN (Imperial Japanese Navy) began installing increasingly modern radars—such as Type 21, Type 22, and Type 13—on its ships. These devices were mounted on battleships, aircraft carriers, heavy and light cruisers, as well as destroyers. Thanks to these radars, Japanese forces could more effectively counter aircraft and conduct night and low-visibility operations. The most common radars of this series were used, among others, on the aircraft carrier Zuikaku and the battleship Yamato.
