The Kongo Class battlecruisers were built for the Imperial Japanese Navy in the 1910s and were designed by British Architects with the lead ship of the class being built in Barrow-in-Furness in England. The remainder of the class were built in Japan
The class were extensively rebuilt in the Inter war period and were reclassified as fast Battleships. The ships were the most active of the IJN Capital Ships participating in most major naval engagements in the Pacific Theatre of WW2. All four ships were sunk during the war.
This model is designed in the 1/1800 scale but can be printed in 1/2400 scale without appreciable loss of detail. The model comes as several STL files, one for the ships’ Hull and multiple sprues for the Bridge, turrets, cranes etc.
There are two sprues for the turrets, one has the turret barrels horizontal whilst the other has the barrels elevated to show the ship in combat.
We have tested a few of our designs at two additional scales: 1/3000 and 1/1200 which have all turned out really well. At 1/3000 scale though some components are very small and require additional patience when assembling.
