Academy 14224 1/700 USS Enterprise CV-6 Special Edition - Scale Carrier Kit

This Academy 1/700 scale kit recreates the USS Enterprise CV-6, a highly decorated carrier from the Second World War. The special edition presents the ship's distinctive silhouette and deck arrangement for model builders seeking an accurate static replica.

Operational Heritage and Modelling Interest

Enterprise served in major Pacific engagements including the Battle of Midway and the Doolittle Raid, earning a reputation among historians and hobbyists. Constructing this kit offers insight into carrier design and wartime operations while delivering a focused modelling challenge.

Assembly Quality and Showcase Potential
