Accurate 1/700 Model of the IJN Kaga Carrier

The Fujimi FJ-45189 presents an accurate small-scale replica of the IJN Kaga, reproduced in 1/700 scale with a full hull layout. Photo-etched components are included to refine deck fittings and superstructure features, giving modellers the tools to create a convincing wartime carrier.

Why the Kaga Appeals to Modellers

Kaga's role in early Pacific operations makes it a popular subject for historical kits. This model emphasises the ship's profile and deck arrangement, and the photo-etched items add delicate elements that raise the kit above standard injection-moulded detail.

Construction Notes and Display Tips

Fujimi's engineering provides well-shaped parts that fit accurately at this scale. The photo-etched pieces require patience during assembly but pay off in realism. Consider weathering and careful painting to bring out the carrier's structural lines when finishing for shelf or diorama display.

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic with Photo-Etched Parts
  • Assembly: Requires glue and paint (not included)
  • Full Hull Design
Yes, a fine pair of tweezers, a small bending tool or flat pliers, and superglue are recommended to handle and secure the photo-etched pieces without damage.
The full hull form is suited to static display; many builders mount the finished model on a custom or commercial stand to showcase the hull lines and deck details.
Check the kit contents list before starting; if decals are present they will be specific to the carrier configuration, otherwise aftermarket decal sets can be sourced for accurate markings.
