■ Product explanation ■ The US Navy submarine 『 Gato-class 』, which began mass production due to the outbreak of the Pacific War.
More than 200 vessels were produced and continued to damage Japanese marine transportation.
In response, the Japanese Navy deployed the 『 no. 13 Antisubmarine 』.
This is a plastic model assembly kit that reproduces this Pacific rival in 1/700 scale and contains 2 ships each.
The Gato-class submarine is armed and the periscope is selectable and various types can be reproduced. The ship bottom and screw parts are also included.
On the other hand, the No. 13 Antisubmarine reproduces with precision such as a torpedo projector, an 80 mm high-angle gun, and an antiaircraft machine gun.
In addition, two US B-24 Liberator bombers, which were active in attacking naval vessels, are also included, and it is interesting to compare the size.
