Fujimi 60027 - 1/350 IJN Aircraft Carrier Hiryu 1941 Scale Reproduction

This Fujimi 1/350 representation of the Imperial Japanese Navy carrier Hiryu from 1941 gives model makers a chance to recreate a key vessel from early World War II. Noted for its part in the Battle of Midway, the Hiryu is presented here with fine detailing that captures its wartime silhouette and deck layout. The kit suits collectors who value historical accuracy and scale fidelity.

Operational History and Scale Accuracy

The Hiryu played a notable role in the Pacific campaign, and this model emphasizes authentic proportions and deck arrangement. The kit ships with 36 navalized aircraft, each scaled to match the carrier environment, offering a realistic look when arranged on the flight deck or stored in the hangar areas.

Assembly Notes and Display Potential

Assembly calls for patient glue work and careful fitting of small parts, rewarding builders with a display-ready model once painted. Finished models make strong centrepieces for naval collections and dioramas that focus on mid-20th century carrier operations.
