This is a plastic model kit, assembly is required.
Recreated as a 1/700 scale plastic model kit, the battleship North Carolina was the first U.S. battleship built after the naval treaties and the first new battleship in 17 years since the Colorado class. At the outbreak of the Pacific War she was state of the art, equipped with three 16-inch turrets (nine barrels), twenty 5-inch dual-purpose guns, and radar. This kit faithfully captures the ship’s profile and major details while offering a simple parts layout for easier assembly.
