Why this kit matters
The Unryu-class aircraft carriers were a series of Japanese carriers built during World War II. Named after dragons, these carriers were designed to be more efficient and easier to build than their predecessors. The Unryu was the lead ship of its class and played a significant role in Japan's naval strategy during the war. Although only a few were completed, they represented Japan's efforts to bolster its naval capabilities in the face of increasing Allied pressure.
The Unryu-class carriers were equipped with a variety of aircraft and were intended to support Japan's naval operations across the Pacific. Their design reflected the lessons learned from earlier carrier battles, focusing on improved aircraft handling and operational efficiency. The Unryu model kit captures this historical significance, offering modellers a chance to recreate a piece of naval history.
