Tamiya 78032 1/350 IJN Destroyer Kagero Scale Model Kit  [78032]

Detailed Presentation of the Tamiya 78032 - 1/350 IJN Destroyer Kagero

The Tamiya 78032 kit reproduces the Japanese Navy destroyer Kagero with fine detail and period accuracy. As the lead ship of her class, Kagero saw extensive service in the early stages of World War II and this kit reflects her appearance at the start of the conflict, making it a solid choice for history minded modellers and scale hobbyists.

Service Record and Notable Design Elements

Completed in late 1939, the Kagero class was noted for efficient hull form and reliable escort capability. This kit mirrors those design cues, showing the aft deck in its early-war twin 12.7cm gun configuration and the bridge layout before radar additions, together with the simpler mast fittings used at the time.

Build Quality and Finishing Options

Builders will value the supplied photo-etched components and clear parts that boost realism. The kit supports both waterline and full hull builds and includes a display stand. Delicate moulded hull panel lines, degaussing cable details and metal chain and shaft pieces underline Tamiya quality.
