Aoshima WL456 1/700 Hatsushimo Water Line scale model

The Aoshima 06748 1/700 Japanese Navy Destroyer Hatsushimo is a Water Line series kit tailored for model builders who value accurate proportions and authentic deck fittings. This package represents the Hatsushimo with components suited to careful painting and detailing.

Context for builders and collectors

Hatsushimo operated as part of Japan's wartime destroyer force and this kit reproduces its characteristic silhouette. The 1/700 scale helps collectors assemble a historically informed miniature that fits well into fleet displays or coastal diorama scenes.
