CV6 USS Enterprise
$950.00
Without a doubt, the most famous US Navy ship of all time is the USS Enterprise. This famous ship fought in every major action of WW II except Pearl Harbor. She earned more battle star awards than any US Navy ship. The accomplishments made by her and her crew will probably never be repeated. She saw the most action of any US Navy ship. This is a must have for anyone who has a 1/350 scale WW II collection.
This
is a massive kit. While not for the novice, this kit will take time to build in
order to display her in all her glory. A center piece model that is on display
in the Imperial War Museum of England, this kit can be your center piece as
well.
The
Blue Water Navy kit features a 2 foot 4 inch length hull. The hull is split at
the waterline to allow the modeler to build a full hull or a waterline model.
The kit has a complete and detailed hanger bay. All the platforms are reproduced
in exact 1/350 scale. The kit has a solid photo-etched brass flight deck. The
engraved deck with 
all the tie downs reproduced really sets this kit apart. Four sheets of
photo-etched brass parts are included that amount to over 1200 parts. The sheets
are so detailed that even the 40mm guns have gun sights. 24 aircraft are
included in the kit. You get 8 F6F Hellcats, 8 TBF Avengers, and 8 SBD Dauntless
dive bombers. All planes have brass propellers and landing gear. The SBD's
even have brass dive brakes. All small parts are made in fine pewter.
