The set includes eight precisely crafted components made of turned brass, which are a perfect addition to models of Kongo, Fuso, and Ise, as well as their sister ships: Hiei, Haruna, Kirishima, Yamashiro, and Hyuga.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese barrels replicate the armament used by the IJN on battleships operating during World War I and II, especially during actions in the Pacific. The original British Vickers 36cm\/45 guns were supplied to Japan as part of technological cooperation, and after 1928 they were manufactured locally as the so-called 41st Year Type. They participated in the most important Imperial Navy operations, including the Battle of Leyte and numerous convoys and engagements in the southern and central Pacific waters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBy using Master brand metal barrels, your model gains exceptional realism and much greater durability compared to standard plastic barrels. Assembly is extremely simple: just remove the original plastic barrel, drill a hole in the blast shield and glue the part in using cyanoacrylate adhesive. The smooth surface, precise shape, and balanced proportions make these top-class additions for modelers who expect perfect details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis product is recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers who wish to make their battleships stand out in their collections or at modeling contests.
