Detailed Tamiya 25416 1/700 Mogami Aircraft Carrying Cruiser Replica

The Tamiya 1/700 Japanese Aircraft Carrying Cruiser Mogami reproduces the unusual hybrid conversion from cruiser to carrier with careful attention to hull and deck lines. Builders will notice the precise moulding and the kit's focus on authentic external features.

Model of a Notable Warship Conversion

The Mogami class played a distinct role in naval operations by shifting from heavy cruiser duties to aircraft handling. This scale kit highlights that transition, making it useful for those studying ship evolution or assembling a historical fleet display.

Assembly Tips and Presentation

Assembly rewards patient, steady hands since the parts are finely detailed and require glue and accurate finishing. When complete, the Mogami makes a compact but striking display that showcases fine modelling technique.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
  • Dimensions: Length approximately 286mm
This kit is best suited to intermediate to advanced modellers because of the small, delicate components and the need for precise gluing and painting.
Model cement and CA for small fittings are commonly used. Acrylic or enamel hobby paints are fine, applied after priming to bring out fine deck and hull details.
The kit concentrates on the ship itself; many builders add separate 1/700 aircraft from aftermarket sources if they want deck-based planes for a more complete diorama.
