Tamiya 78020 1/350 Scale Yukikaze Warship Replica

The Japanese Navy Destroyer Yukikaze, a Kagero-class vessel, holds a storied place in naval history. Launched in January 1940, she served across World War II in major operations from the Philippines to the Solomon Islands and saw action at the Battle of Okinawa. Noted for surviving the conflict, Yukikaze earned the nickname "lucky destroyer." This 1/350 scale kit from Tamiya represents Yukikaze as she appeared during the 1945 Ten Ichi Go operation.
