Responsibility details are not available.
A set of twelve turned metal barrels for the Japanese naval anti-aircraft guns of 127 millimeter caliber Type 89 in 1:350 scale. The way of making them shows in the part itself: the barrel came about by machining on a lathe, so it has a regular circular cross-section along its whole length and a straight axis. The word Long in the name sets this form apart within the range.
In 1:350 scale a plastic barrel is necessarily thicker than it should be and carries flash from manufacture that is hard to sand on such a small part. A turned replacement has a thin muzzle, a sharp outline and does not warp. On a ship that has twelve such guns the difference adds up into the overall impression of the silhouette of the superstructure.
It will be appreciated by builders of Japanese ships of the Second World War who are finishing off the armament of the superstructure. The Type 89 gun was the standard heavy anti-aircraft weapon of the Imperial Japanese Navy and was most often fitted in twin mounts, so twelve barrels will cover the greater part of the armament of one ship.
A set of twelve barrels is supplied. The ship model, the mounts, paints and glue are not included, unless stated otherwise.
