Overview of the Hasegawa 49227 Akagi model

This Hasegawa 1/700 representation of the Aircraft Carrier Akagi offers a compact but faithful recreation of the carrier's silhouette. It appeals to scale modellers who want an accurate wartime subject without taking up excessive display space.

Notable wartime role

The Akagi served as part of the main carrier strike force during early Pacific campaigns. Building this kit provides insight into carrier layout and operational priorities of the era, making it useful for historical displays and study models.

Assembly notes for modellers

The kit features finely molded components that require careful trimming, gluing, and painting. Expect detail work on the superstructure and flight deck; steady hands and fine brushes will help bring the small-scale features to life.
