1/700 Scale Full Hull Model of the IJN Kaga

The Fujimi FJ-45189 kit delivers a faithful 1/700 scale rendering of the Imperial Japanese Navy aircraft carrier Kaga. This full hull model, supplied with photo-etched parts, lets model shipbuilders reproduce the carrier's form and deck fittings with fine precision, making it a strong choice for historical collections and display projects.

Historical Background and Modelling Interest

The Kaga played a notable role in early World War II naval actions. This kit captures the vessel's silhouette and deck arrangement, providing builders with a chance to study and assemble detailed components. The photo-etched elements increase realism and present an engaging build challenge for experienced hobbyists.

Build Quality and Display Recommendations

Fujimi's molding accuracy is evident in the kit's parts, which mirror the carrier's lines at this scale. The inclusion of photo-etched details enhances small fittings and railings for a sharper finished appearance. Finished on a stand or in a diorama, the model complements other ships from the same period for a cohesive collection.

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic with Photo-Etched Parts
  • Assembly: Requires glue and paint (not included)
  • Full Hull Design
Photo-etched parts add crisp, thin details such as railings and vents that are difficult to replicate in injection plastic, improving scale fidelity but requiring careful handling and basic bending skills.
The kit is best tackled by modelers with some experience, especially with small photo-etched pieces and precise painting; beginners can still attempt it but should expect a steeper learning curve.
Beyond basic glue and paints, fine tweezers, a sharp hobby knife, superglue for photo-etch, and small files or sanding sticks will help achieve clean joins and crisp detail.
