1:350 BB-63 Missouri ('91), battleship model kit

This 1:350 scale model kit recreates BB-63 Missouri in its 1991 configuration, pairing the long, lean lines of the Iowa class with the dense deck equipment of the ship's final service years. At 774 mm long and 94.5 mm wide, the finished battleship has the size to show the contrast between the narrow hull, the layered superstructure and the broad arrangement of armament across the deck. The subject itself carries unusual historical weight. Missouri was one of the last major battleships built for the US Navy, and the 1991 fit places the model in the period after the ship's 1986 modernization and during its final operational chapter. The real vessel combined 212,000 horsepower with a top speed of 33 knots, and the Iowa-class layout centered on 3 triple turrets carrying 9 main 16 inch guns with a range of up to 40 km. Those proportions and weapon positions shape the character of the build, from the fore and aft turret placement to the tall mast and radar structures above the deck. Assembly kit, decals and a nameplate are included. Paints and cement are required separately. Once completed, the model suits a naval display, a late-Cold War collection or a build focused on warship detail, markings and the distinctive silhouette of an Iowa-class battleship.
