This, however, resulted in concerns for the ships overall strength and stability. The Kumano, the last Mogami cruiser completed in 1937, was subsequently fitted with a large bulge, and the upper deck was built narrower and lower than the first two Mogami cruisers. 920m\/sec., a max. range of 27,400m and a projection angle up to 55 degrees. These 15.5cm triple guns were highly respected by artillery experts. The Kumano participated in many battles during WWII including the Battle of Midway, the Battle of the Eastern Solomons, and the greatest naval battle of WWII, the Battle of Leyte Gulf, before suffering a simultaneous torpedo attack causing it to sink in Santa Cruz Bay in 1944.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eJapanese Light Cruiser Kumano plastic assembly kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e1\/700 scale, Overall length: 286.5mm, Overall width: 36.5mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eThe graceful form of the Kumano has been accurately replicated.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eKumano's characteristic structures have been accurately reproduced.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eThe hull has been divided in two halves in order to reproduce the finest details.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eThe layout of the rear flight deck with rails and turntables has been sharply represented.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eThe main turrets can rotate after completion via poly cap.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eEquipment such as armament including 12.7cm gun turrets or triple tube torpedo launchers, main mast, aircraft crane and catapults are accurately reproduced\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TAMIYA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43097921978504,"sku":"T31344","price":42.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0650\/3150\/4008\/files\/T31344_f4374cb2-9d80-4e4c-8f03-710151a2be27.jpg?v=1732179271","url":"https:\/\/hobbiesonline.com.au\/products\/tamiya-31344-1-700-waterline-japanese-kumano-plastic-model-kit","provider":"Hobbies Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
