Trumpeter 05756 Replica of the 1/700 SS John W. Brown Liberty Ship

The SS John W. Brown earned recognition during World War II after completing 13 voyages to the Persian Gulf and Mediterranean. She saw combat support at Anzio and joined the southern France invasion in Operation Dragoon during August 1944, where US Navy Armed Guard personnel were involved in downing an enemy plane. After the war the vessel took part in reconstruction efforts and in repatriating American forces.

Construction Tips and Display Uses

This 1/700 Trumpeter kit combines crisp detail with a reasonable part count, making it a practical choice for experienced builders and ambitious newcomers. The components arrive on four sprues, including the upper hull, deck, lower hull and a waterline plate, enabling either full-hull builds or waterline display setups that reflect the ship's wartime profile.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1:700
  • Length: 192.2mm
  • Width: 24.8mm
  • Height: 48.5mm
  • Total Plastic Parts: 163pcs

The kit comes with assembly instructions that cover part placement; for detailed rigging and finer fittings you may want to consult reference photos or aftermarket guides tailored to 1/700 ships.
Build time varies with skill and finish level, but a straightforward assembly and painting session can be completed over several evenings, while a fully detailed, weathered display may take much longer.
The kit is accurate for its scale, yet modellers seeking a museum standard often add photo-etch railings, fine rigging and enhanced paintwork to lift the presentation up close.
The kit does not include electronics, but careful internal modification can accommodate small LEDs for navigation or interior lighting if you plan the wiring and power source during assembly.
