Introducing the Aoshima 1/700 Japanese Navy Aircraft Carrier Unryu WL226

The Aoshima 1/700 Japanese Navy Aircraft Carrier Unryu offers a compact but detailed project for model ship enthusiasts. The Unryu-class design is represented here in waterline format, suitable for collectors who prioritise period accuracy and fine assembly.

Model highlights and era relevance

The Unryu-class reflected a wartime shift in shipbuilding. This kit captures the carrier's profile and essential fittings, making it a relevant subject for builders interested in late WWII naval engineering.

Construction overview

Assembly involves a number of delicate parts and close fitting sections. Use precise cutting tools and quality plastic cement for neat joins. The result rewards careful builders with a sharp-scale finished model.

Collection fit

At 1/700, the completed Unryu stands well alongside other waterline ships. It is ideal for shelf displays, themed groupings or small diorama scenes that focus on naval action or fleet arrangements.
