The Light Cruiser Kinu operated in varied roles during the 1940s, from escort duties to reconnaissance and torpedo strikes. This 1/700 scale Tamiya kit lets hobbyists construct a precise miniature that captures the ship's operational versatility.
Modelled after the vessel completed in 1922, the kit faithfully reproduces the Kinu's slim hull form, three funnels and squared bridge structure. Armament elements like the 14cm guns and twin 61cm torpedo launchers are included to enhance historical correctness for collectors and diorama builders.
The kit is intended for assembly and includes fine exterior detailing plus metal components to assist waterline balance. Waterslide decals and step-by-step pictorial guides are supplied to help achieve a tidy, authentic finish.
