Aoshima #AO-04541 - Katori 1/700 Training Cruiser Plastic Model Kit, Detailed Build  [AO-04541]

1/700 Katori Training Cruiser by Aoshima - Detailed Scale Ship Kit

The Aoshima 1/700 Training Cruiser Katori model presents a faithful tiny-scale representation for hobbyists who enjoy historical ship builds. The kit recreates the distinctive features of the Katori-class training cruiser used in the Imperial Japanese Navy, allowing builders to assemble a neat, accurate display piece.

Role in Service and Model Accuracy

The original Katori balanced training duties with operational tasks, and the kit reflects that mixed service history with accurate superstructure and deck fittings. Builders can use period references to apply paint and markings that match wartime appearance.

Assembly Experience and Presentation

Construction rewards careful, methodical modelling. Parts are designed to produce clean joins, and the completed model looks impressive on its own or as part of a larger fleet display after painting and weathering.
