Detailed Tamiya 31314 1/700 Scale Agano - WWII Flotilla Leader in Miniature

The Agano served as a destroyer flotilla leader during World War II, coordinating torpedo strikes and engaging in multiple Pacific operations. As the nameship of her class, she was built before the war and was later lost to a US submarine near Truk.

Accurate 1942 Configuration for Scale Model Builders

Tamiya's 1/700 Agano kit portrays the cruiser as completed in 1942, offering faithful hull proportions, mast outlines and the twin 15cm gun turrets. The kit balances fine surface detail with parts that are straightforward to assemble for experienced hobbyists.

Components That Support a Clean Build

The package includes finely detailed plastic parts, small metal fittings for added weight and realism, waterslide decals and detailed pictorial instructions. Assembly requires glue and benefits from careful painting to bring out the kit's sculpted detail.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Completed Length: 247mm
  • Material: High-quality plastic with metal components
  • Assembly Type: Glue required
  • Decals: Waterslide included
The kit aims to represent Agano's 1942 appearance with accurate external features and armament positions, suitable for display or diorama use focused on that period.
While parts are well engineered, the kit requires glue, decal application and careful painting, so it is best suited to modellers with some previous experience.
Use decal setting solution and a soft brush to bed the waterslide decals into small details. A gloss base coat helps decals conform to curved surfaces before weathering.
