Overview of the Tamiya 31349 Abukuma Model

The Tamiya 1/700 Japanese Light Cruiser Abukuma model lets hobbyists assemble a compact replica of a Nagara-class vessel. Noted for actions in the early Pacific campaign, including Pearl Harbor, the Abukuma's wartime profile is captured with careful moulding and detail.

Why the Abukuma Appeals to Modellers

Counted among six Nagara-class light cruisers, Abukuma is remembered for nimble handling and speed. This kit reproduces the ship as seen during the Pearl Harbor operation and highlights the boat's distinctive double-curve bow for accurate comparisons with sister ships.

Assembly Notes and Display Options

The 1/700 scale and waterline hull make this kit ideal for harbour scenes or grouped fleet displays. Builders who enjoy fine-detail work and realistic finishes will appreciate the careful part layout and display potential.
