1:350 Scale SOC-3 Seagull Naval Scout Kit

This Trumpeter 1:350 kit depicts the SOC-3 Seagull, a small shipboard scout used by the United States Navy. The compact model is geared to modellers who appreciate authentic silhouette and rigging at micro scale.

Operational Use and Naval Duty

The SOC-3 Seagull operated from cruisers and battleships, performing observation, patrol and artillery spotting. Its shipboard role required reliable handling and the ability to be catapult-launched for sea operations.

Kit Composition and Small-Scale Detail

The model reproduces the aircrafts main features within tight dimensions: about 27.36mm long, a 31.8mm wingspan and 12.51mm height. Components come on six sprues including clear parts, and the 54-piece count gives good scope for careful painting and finishing.

Assembly time varies with experience; expect several focused sessions for careful gluing, filling and painting at this scale rather than a single sitting.
The kit includes key detail parts, but advanced modellers often add fine rigging or small aftermarket photoetch pieces to enhance realism.
Yes, the compact footprint and clear parts make it ideal for ship deck dioramas or shelf displays beside larger 1:350 vessels.
