Thank you for your interest in this product. 【Product Description】 Model Size Scale: 1/350 Model Length: Approximately 370mm Model Width: Approximately 70mm Only the ship hull is for sale. Based on a Hasegawa kit, this model meticulously and carefully recreates the ship's appearance at the time. Etched parts have been used in its construction. The painting process primarily involves primer (base) → sandpaper → base coat → main coat → gradient painting → acrylic painting (weathering). Weathering has been applied sparingly to allow for display. We take care in packaging, but please understand that parts may detach during shipping. If damage occurs during shipping, we kindly request that you repair it. We will provide instructions on how to repair it based on the condition of the damage. No returns or exchanges. 【About Shimakaze】 The Shimakaze, of the Shimakaze-class destroyer, was a first-class destroyer built by the Japanese Navy at the Maizuru Naval Arsenal. Construction began in August 1941 (Showa 16) and was completed in May 1943 (Showa 18). The Shimakaze-class destroyer was designed as the next-generation fleet destroyer and was equipped with a new type of engine (75,890 horsepower during trial runs), achieving a high speed of 40.9 knots (approximately 75.6 km/h) and was heavily armed with torpedoes (three quintuple torpedo launchers, 15 firing lines). Due to changes in tactics caused by the start of the Greater East Asia War (Pacific War), the reduced potential of torpedo warfare itself, and the labor-intensive production, the mass production plan for the Shimakaze-class was abandoned, and the construction of destroyers shifted to the Akizuki-class destroyer and the Type D (Matsu-class destroyer). After completion, the Shimakaze belonged to the 11th Destroyer Squadron (flagship "Tatsuta") of the training unit. From mid-June 1944 (Showa 19) onwards, it escorted the Yamato-class battleships and participated in Operation Kon and the Battle of the Philippine Sea. After the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the 2nd Destroyer Squadron was deployed to the ground force reinforcement operation to Leyte Island (Operation Ta). On November 11, while participating in the Third Operation Ta as the flagship of the 2nd Destroyer Squadron (Rear Admiral Mikio Hayakawa), the Shimakaze was attacked by carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy's task force in Ormoc Bay and sunk along with its sister ships (Naganami, Wakatsuki, Hamanami), etc.
