1/700 Japanese Navy seaplane Carrier Toro "SKYWAVE SERIES" [W210]

Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.

Product Description ■ The seaplane carrier "No Toro", which represents the pre-war era, was originally completed at the Kawasaki Dockyard in 1920 as a name ship of a large oil supply ship.
It was converted into a seaplane carrier in June 1934 as a replacement ship of the aging first generation seaplane carrier "Wakamiya" and was incorporated into Sasebo Chinju-fu.
This tanker type ship with an engine at the tail was larger than the "Wakamiya" and its carrying capacity increased.
The aircraft was accommodated on the upper deck with wooden canopy at the front and rear of the bridge to cover it.
In addition, the front and rear derrick posts were reinforced and extended to lift the aircraft.
The pilot house was installed at the front and lower part of the bridge because the visibility of the bridge was reduced by this renovation.
During the war, I was engaged in aircraft transportation and heavy oil transportation, and the war ended while I was repairing damage caused by lightning by the 米潜.
