1/700 Waterline IJN Arashio Plastic Model Hasegawa 49468  [HA-49468]

Hasegawa 49468 — Waterline Series: Arashio in 1/700

The kit is a 1/700 scale waterline plastic model depicting the Imperial Japanese Navy destroyer Arashio, released under Hasegawa's waterline range for naval modelling.

Arashio operated as a fleet destroyer and escort during the World War II period. Designs from the interwar years aimed to combine speed, armament, and seakeeping for operational duties; during wartime the class typically performed escorting and anti-surface/submarine roles.

This scale model represents the vessel for waterline exhibition. It is aimed at modellers who value accurate deck plans and hull silhouette in reduced scale. Building the kit will involve routine modelling tasks such as trimming, adhesive assembly, painting, and rigging to reach a detailed finish. The model works well in multi-ship displays or as a standalone waterline exhibit.

A compact waterline portrayal of the Arashio, useful for hobbyists assembling fleet compositions or standalone displays.
