Hasegawa 1/700 IJN Japanese Heavy Cruiser Aoba: detailed naval modelling kit

The Hasegawa 1/700 model of the WWII IJN Aoba presents a compact but detailed project for naval modellers. The kit reflects the Aoba class structure and allows builders to recreate period features with careful assembly and painting.

Fidelity and small scale craftsmanship

Hasegawa delivers precise panel lines and distinct structural parts in this 1/700 offering. The layout lets modellers capture the ship's distinctive silhouette and armament arrangement at miniature scale.

Assembly notes and viewing options

Expect a moderately involved build with multiple sub assemblies. Completed, the model is a tidy showcase piece that fits well into collections or themed dioramas centred on WWII naval events.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
Not required, but many builders add photo etched parts or resin upgrades to improve railings and small fittings for a higher level of realism.
Standard plastic cement is suitable for most parts. For very small components, a thin cyanoacrylate can be used carefully to avoid excess glue marks.
Prime the assembled hull, then apply base coats and finer details with small brushes or an airbrush for even coverage. Seal with a clear coat when complete.
The kit includes assembly instructions. Colour callouts may be basic, so consult reference photos or paint guides for historic accuracy.
