Exquisitely detailed 1/350 scale model kit of the IJN Musashi, a World War II era heavy-battleship of the imperial Japanese Navy and the second and final ship of the Yamato class, the largest and heaviest battleships ever constructed. Commissioned on 5 August 1942, the Musashi was a massive battleship that displays 72,800 tones at full load with a crew complement of 2,399. Musashi's main battery consisted of nine 18.1 inch 40 cm/45 Type 94 naval guns, the largest caliber of naval artillery ever fitted to a warship and an impressive amount of firepower by any standards. The Musashi served as the flagship of Admirals Isoroku Yamamoto and Mineichi Koga in 1943, and the mighty battleship's most notable combat action came during the historic naval Battle of Leyte Gulf (23?26 October 1944), where she was attacked by U.S. Navy aircrafts and was sunk in the Sibuyan Sea on October 24, 1944. This Tamiya 1/350 scale precision-made assembly kit recreates the mighty Battleship Musashi in exquisite detail, including her defensive anti-aircraft suite of numerous single 25mm cannons on the main deck. This different anti-aircraft armament makes for an interesting comparison with the Yamato.
