Kashima 1/700 Scale by Aoshima #04542

The Aoshima 1/700 Kashima Japanese Light Cruiser kit recreates the training cruiser in a compact waterline format. It caters to modellers who want a historically grounded subject without a large footprint, offering clear panel lines and proportionate parts.

Role and Model Faithfulness

Originally part of the Katori-class, Kashima served mainly as a training vessel. This kit reflects those historical details while keeping the scale accurate so modellers can showcase a believable representation of the ship.

Construction Tips and Finished Look

The 1/700 scale requires patience when trimming and gluing small parts. Once built and painted, the model makes an attractive display and fits well in shelf collections or grouped naval displays.
