Hasegawa 43170 Japanese Navy Battleship Mikasa Full Hull Limited Edition
Japan’s Mikasa is the only pre-dreadnaught ship still in existence. Built by Vickers between 1899-1902 as a modified Formidable-class battleship of the Royal Navy with two additional 6-inch guns, the ship served during the Russo-Japanese War and is now a museum in Yokosuka, Japan.
Hasegawa offers a couple of versions of its 1/700 scale Mikasa, including a waterline model and this Limited Edition full-hull kit with photo-etched (PE) parts, metal gun barrels, and a wooden stand. Optional ventilators, yardarms, and armament allow the ship to be finished as the Japanese flagship at either the Battle of the Yellow Sea or the Battle of Tsushima.
