Eduard 53007 US Aircraft Carrier Hornet railings 1/350 Trumpeter

The Eduard 53007 US Aircraft Carrier Hornet railings set in 1/350 scale is a high-quality photo-etched accessory dedicated to Trumpeter brand USS Hornet aircraft carrier models. The product is aimed at advanced modelers who wish to give their models a realistic appearance far beyond the capabilities of standard injection-molded plastic parts.

USS Hornet (CV-8) was one of the most famous American aircraft carriers of World War II, belonging to the Yorktown class. The Newport News Shipbuilding shipyard delivered the vessel to the US Navy in October 1941. The Hornet gained fame during the legendary Doolittle Raid (April 1942), and also took part in the Battle of Midway and the Pacific campaign until she was sunk in October 1942. This historic ship was a key asset in US Navy operations against Japan and remains an icon for naval and model-making enthusiasts.

The Eduard 53007 set is made of photo-etched metal with excellent cutting precision, which allows for ultra-thin and authentic railings as used on the USS Hornet. The set includes two photo-etched frets covering all characteristic sections of the railings around the deck and superstructures of the ship. The railings are highly realistic and conform to original US Navy technical documentation, which greatly enhances the visual appeal of the model.
