This is a plastic model kit, assembly is required.Aoshima’s Waterline series has been renewed with even greater precision!!
Outfitting parts have been newly researched and designed. By incorporating numerous slide mechanisms into the molds, the intricate details of the 1/700 scale are accurately reproduced. We proudly present the reborn, more precise Waterline Series.
“Oyodo” was originally completed as the passenger ship *Kasuga Maru* for NYK Line, but was requisitioned and entered service as the first specially converted merchant aircraft carrier. Though it did not achieve notable success in naval battles, it played a vital role transporting troops and aircraft, supporting the front lines. This kit models the aircraft carrier *Oyodo* in 1/700 scale as a plastic model kit. With a parts configuration that emphasizes key details, it is simple to assemble while precisely replicating the original. Newly designed equipment such as triple-mounted 25mm machine guns have been added. The model effectively conveys the intricacy and precision of the 1/700 scale.
