Tamiya 31902 - 1/700 U.S. Navy DD445 Fletcher Destroyer Scale Kit for Experienced Modellers  [31902]

Tamiya 31902 - 1/700 U.S. Navy DD-445 Fletcher: Kit Overview

This 1/700 scale Tamiya kit recreates the U.S. Navy DD-445 Fletcher with careful attention to overall profile and key fittings. The set is aimed at hobbyists who want a faithful tabletop representation of a WWII Fletcher-class destroyer in a compact display size.

Why the Fletcher Matters in Miniature

The Fletcher-class served widely during WWII, and this kit reflects characteristic elements like the single 12.7cm gun placements and the ship's low silhouette. The model captures the look of the class without being overly complex to follow from the instructions.

Parts Quality and Assembly Notes

Builders will find crisp injection-moulded parts along with metal pieces intended to aid flotation and balance. The kit includes waterslide decals and a pictorial guide; standard modelling tools such as cement, fine tweezers and a hobby knife are recommended for neat results.
