Miniature interpretation of USS Mount Whitney LCC-20

As a command platform, the USS Mount Whitney LCC-20 has distinct deck lines and superstructure; this 1:700 Trumpeter kit aims to reflect those characteristics for scale modelling. The kit targets builders focused on authentic shape and fit.

Construction details and presentation

Builders can choose between a waterline option or a full hull assembly, with a parts layout that mirrors the ship's profile. The plastic components are arranged to offer clear alignment and realistic surface detail once painted.

Service and mission context

The Mount Whitney has fulfilled roles as a fleet command asset in several deployments, coordinating sea and air operations. This model brings attention to platform elements associated with those missions.
