Hasegawa 49032 - 1/700 Kaga J.M.S.D.F. DDH miniature

The Hasegawa 1/700 Kaga J.M.S.D.F. DDH miniature reproduces the profile of Japan's helicopter destroyer in tidy, scale-accurate plastic. This kit is aimed at modellers who enjoy contemporary warships and compact, display-ready builds.

Service Role and Significance

The Kaga operates as a helicopter carrier within the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, contributing to anti-submarine duties and disaster relief missions. Entering service in 2015, the ship is a modern example of multi-role naval design and fleet support operations.

Build Experience and Detail Level

Parts are crisply moulded to represent the flight deck, island and hull form. The assembly rewards patience and light tools; careful painting and decal placement will lift the finished model. Ideal for those used to handling small components and fine detailing.
