The famous USN 40 mm/56 Bofors quadruple mount anti-aircraft gun was one of the mainstays of naval air defense on virtually all classes of US Navy ships during World War II. These batteries saw action in the largest naval battles, effectively protecting fleets from air attacks in both the Pacific and Atlantic. The version with the optomechanical Mk-51 director significantly improved firing accuracy, allowing precise targeting of fast-moving aerial threats.

Advantages of the Master SM-350-094 set:

• Extraordinary attention to detail—each barrel is turned from metal, and PE parts replicate the complex construction of platforms and gun shields.
• The combination of materials (resin, metal, PE) enables effects unattainable in standard plastic models.
• Ideal for professional enhancement of ship models such as USS Missouri, USS Iowa, or Fletcher-class destroyer escorts in 1:350 scale.

Difficulty level: 4/5—due to small components and the demanding assembly of photo-etched parts and metal barrels. This product is recommended as a professional upgrade and an enhancement to any collection of World War II-era ship models.
