The Hasegawa 40082 - 1/350 Scale IJN Heian Maru Submarine Depot Ship Model Kit captures the profile of a wartime submarine depot ship with attention to scale proportions. This 1/350 reproduction reflects the Heian Maru's support role within the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II.

The parts are arranged to mirror the vessel's main structural elements, which rewards careful assembly and finishing. Best suited to modellers comfortable with multi-part kits, the finished model makes a strong centrepiece for naval showcases.
