1:350 U.S. Navy USS Salem Cruiser Super Modernized Version

The Steel Giant of the Cold War — USS Salem Heavy Cruiser, America's Last Heavy Cruiser Legend

USS Salem was one of the last heavy cruisers built by the U.S. Navy and a symbol of American naval power during the Cold War. Its 203mm main guns were among the strongest at the time, but it retired before the missile age hit — that's both its tragedy and its legend.

This 1:350 super-modern handcrafted model shows the Salem in its ultimate imagined upgrade: modern radar, upgraded air defense systems, and all-new electronics — a perfect mix of history and imagination.

- Scale: 1:350, big and impressive for display
- Super-Modern Version: imagined upgrade, totally unique design

- Comes with a standard display base (custom upgrades available, contact me separately)

About the Craft
Each model is personally built and painted by me with patience, taking dozens to hundreds of hours. Handcrafted items may have slight individual differences, which is exactly what makes them special compared to mass-produced products.
