The construction of the vessel began on December 20, 1943, but changing wartime needs resulted in the ship never being completed. There were later considerations to convert her into a guided missile cruiser or command ship, but these plans were not realized, and the hull was eventually scrapped.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eService period:\u003c\/strong\u003e World War II (project unfinished).\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic (high-quality polystyrene); includes photo-etched parts (5 pieces) and a metal anchor chain.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eAdd-ons and details:\u003c\/strong\u003e The model features a realistic deck plank layout, hull made using advanced slide molding technology, 2 faithfully replicated SC-1 aircraft, an attractive display stand, and a nameplate for the ship.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic warship model kit.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4\/5 – recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers due to its high level of detail (over 1100 parts) and the presence of photo-etched elements.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eRecommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e We highly recommend this kit to collectors of WWII-era ship models as well as enthusiasts of American naval technology seeking unique and complex projects.
