Artikelbezeichnung: 1:350 WWII Jap. Schwerer Kreuzer Chikuma
This is a highly detailed scale model replica in 1/350 scale of the Japanese Heavy Cruiser Chikuma.
Historical background
Chikuma was the last heavy cruiser the Imperial Japanese Navy
constructed during WWII and was completed in May 1939 as the second ship
of the Tone-class. Her four twin 20.3 cm guns were located at the bow to
enable unhindered operation of up to 6 floatplanes at the stern. Her
design also enabled a top speed of 35 knots and a long range. She was
assigned to the Carrier Mobile Fleet with her sister ship Tone. During
the Pearl Harbor Attack in December 1941, her floatplanes carried out
pre-attack reconnaissance over the Pearl Harbor, which greatly
contributed to the IJNs success of the operation. She was also active
during the Battle of Midway and the Solomon Islands campaign. During the
Battle of the Leyte Gulf in October 1944, she was the flagship of
Admiral Kuritas fleet and contributed to the sinking of the USS Gambier
Bay but she was in turn damaged by torpedoes and scuttled off the coast of Samar Island.
