This is an assembly kit of the Zuikaku, the second ship of the
Shokaku-class, that was completed in September 1941. With her
combination of speed, powerful anti-aircraft armament, and large
aircraft complement, she was the ideal aircraft carrier for the Japanese
Navy. While the model for the Shokaku depicts that ship in early-WWII
form, this model depicts the Zuikaku as she appeared during the Battle
of Leyte Gulf. Thus the model recreates the additional anti-aircraft
armament as well as late-WWII aircraft such as Mitsubishi A6M5 fighters
and Yokosuka D4Y bombers.
