Quadruple 40mm Bofors guns formed the backbone of anti-aircraft defense on many American warships—battleships, cruisers, aircraft carriers, and destroyers—from 1942, during the remainder of the war and through the postwar period. Equipped with the then-modern Mk.51 fire control system, they significantly improved the effectiveness against high-speed aerial targets.

The Very Fire set stands out for its realistic rendering of details (including the Mk.51), the accurate portrayal of the characteristic quad gun mounting, and compatibility with a wide range of kits from renowned manufacturers (Trumpeter, Hobby Boss, Tamiya, etc). Advanced photo-etched elements allow for a level of precision unattainable in standard plastic kits.

The set is recommended both for experienced 1/350 ship modelers seeking to elevate their creations to a higher level of realism, as well as intermediate hobbyists planning their first detail-up project. The assembly difficulty is rated at 4/5 due to the presence of small parts requiring precision. The Very Fire USS02 set will make an excellent addition to any WWII diorama or as a standalone collector’s project.
