Trumpeter 1/350 USS The Sullivans DD-537 scale naval modelling kit

The Trumpeter 1/350 USS The Sullivans DD-537 kit is well suited to builders focused on historical ships and fine detailing. The namesake ship honors the five Sullivan brothers lost on USS Juneau, launched in 1943, and later earned nine WWII battle stars plus two from the Korean War.

Combat Roles and Display Choices

The destroyer served as a plane guard, carried out coastal bombardments and took part in anti-kamikaze defence. Those service roles are reflected in the kit, which provides options for either a waterline presentation or a full hull to match your display intent.

Dimensions, Parts Count and Finish

At a 1:350 scale the finished model spans 328 mm in length and 34 mm in beam, offering clear scope for painting and weathering. The kit contains 174 plastic parts over 12 sprues plus separate lower and upper hull pieces and deck assemblies. It does not include metal, resin or photo-etched components, and comes with decals for 1943 and 1945 markings.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1:350
  • Length: 328 mm
  • Width: 34 mm
  • Total Plastic Parts: 174 pcs

Basic modelling tools such as hobby knives, fine files, plastic cement, tweezers and small brushes are recommended for clean assembly and painting.
Decals are standard water-slide sheets and respond well to decal setting solutions; sealing with a clear coat improves longevity.
To reach museum-quality you may wish to add aftermarket photo-etch, rigging, and fine brushwork; the kit provides a solid base for those upgrades.
