The Iowa-class battleship USS Missouri BB-63 is a landmark of naval history and Trumpeter presents it as a finely detailed 1/700 scale kit reflecting the 1991 configuration. This release highlights the ship's long service life and appeals to modellers interested in modernised warship builds.
Commissioned in 1944, Missouri became well known as the site of Japan's surrender at the end of World War II. The ship received extensive updates in the 1980s, including additions like Harpoon and Tomahawk missile fittings, elements that this kit recreates for accuracy in the later service era.
The Trumpeter kit models Missouri's later active duty look at 1/700 scale with a finished length of 386 mm. It contains 223 plastic components and includes two brass propellers to enhance realism, making it suitable for shelf display or a small museum-style base.
