Hobby Boss 87001 1:700 JMSDF Oyashio Submarine Overview

The JMSDF Oyashio Class marked an important step in Japan's postwar submarine development. Launched in 1998, these boats introduced bow-mounted torpedo tubes and conformal sonar arrays. Nine 268-foot vessels were commissioned, with further units planned into the late 2000s. This Hobby Boss kit captures the class detail faithfully for collectors and builders who value authenticity.
