The Legend of Akagi
Converted from a battlecruiser hull in the 1920s, Akagi grew into one of Japan's most powerful fleet carriers. She led the six-carrier strike force at Pearl Harbor, Midway, and throughout the early Pacific campaign — until her loss at the Battle of Midway in June 1942. Owning this model means preserving the memory of a ship that changed the course of naval warfare forever.
An exceptional gift for WWII historians, naval enthusiasts, and scale model collectors worldwide.
