Trumpeter 1/350 USS ENGLAND DE-635: Scale Kit Overview

The USS ENGLAND DE-635 is recognised for its notable World War II service as a destroyer escort. Named for Ensign John Charles England who died at Pearl Harbor, this ship is famed for sinking six Japanese submarines between May 19 and May 31, 1944. This Trumpeter kit lets builders recreate that important naval subject with scale accuracy.

Operational History

Commissioned in December 1943, the USS ENGLAND belonged to the turbo-electric destroyer escort group and played an active role in the Pacific Theater. The model reflects those service details and is suited to hobbyists who value historically based ship modelling.

Display Ideas

With its refined detailing and choice of hull style, this model suits display cabinets, naval dioramas or groupings alongside other WWII ships. The included decals offer authentic surface markings for either late or mid war appearances.
