Compact Fleet Models for Display and Study

The Tamiya 25422 - 1/700 Battle of Malaya kit provides authentic miniatures of the British ships and Japanese aircraft involved in the engagement. The set features the Prince of Wales, Repulse, and the destroyers Electra, Express and Vampire together with the attacking bombers.

Event Background and What the Kit Shows

These vessels sailed to reinforce Singapore in early December 1941 and soon faced sustained aerial attack. The model components aim to convey hull lines, superstructure detail and aircraft silhouettes so builders can illustrate the tactical scenario and practise techniques like chipping and wash to suggest battle wear.

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Includes Prince of Wales, Repulse, Electra, Express, Vampire and Japanese bombers
  • Requires model assembly and finishing
  • Paints and decals not part of kit contents
Basic modelling tools such as cutters, files, hobby knife, glue and fine brushes are needed. A magnifier and tweezers help with small 1/700 scale parts.
The bombers come as individual parts that require assembly and painting, allowing you to pose them relative to the ships for dramatic diorama scenes.
Use layered washes, drybrushing and selective chipping to suggest worn paint and battle damage. Light pigments and careful brushwork are effective at 1/700 scale.
