Bringing the USS Hammann to Life in Miniature

The USS Hammann (DD-412) is a notable Sims class destroyer from World War II, remembered for its actions at the Battle of Midway and for assisting the damaged carrier USS Yorktown. The ship later sank after a torpedo strike from an enemy submarine. This Tamiya 1/700 kit lets model builders recreate that historic vessel with careful attention to period detail.

Authentic Detail for Serious Modelers

Tamiya has engineered this kit to reflect the Hammann's features accurately, including the layout of the 12.7cm guns, torpedo tubes and other deck fittings. The waterline format highlights the ship's silhouette, making it suitable for display alongside other WWII naval subjects.

Assembly Reward and Showcase Potential

The assembly process challenges builders with realistic fittings and offers decals for authentic markings. When finished, the model makes a strong display piece for any collection focused on naval engagements of the Second World War.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Length: 151mm
  • Construction type: Assembly kit
  • Decals: Included
  • Armament details: 12.7cm guns, 53.3cm torpedo tubes, depth charge, and 12.7mm machine guns
  • Model type: Waterline display
The kit does not include photo-etch parts, but many builders choose aftermarket photo-etch to sharpen railings and small deck fittings for a finer finish.
Use an airbrush for smooth hull tones and pre-shade panel lines lightly before topcoating. Flat or satin naval grays give the most realistic result for a waterline model.
The kit is aimed at hobbyists with some assembly experience. Novices can build it with patience, but expect small parts and careful gluing to be required.
