About product

The real subject

The 14 cm gun designated 3rd Year Type was part of the armament of Imperial Japanese Navy ships. The figure 50 after the slash is not the caliber but the length of the barrel expressed in multiples of the caliber: fifty times fourteen centimeters gives a barrel roughly seven meters long. A long barrel gives the shell a higher muzzle velocity and with it a flatter trajectory. In 1:700 scale such a barrel works out at one centimeter, so every tenth of a millimeter counts on it.

What the set contains

Twenty turned barrels, according to the name of the item. A turned part has a circular section along its whole length and a drilled muzzle, which is not a matter of course on a kit part in this scale: a plastic barrel tends to be thicker, carries lengthwise traces of manufacture and usually has the muzzle only suggested. The barrels are shaped for turrets without canvas blast bags, that is for the version where the opening between the barrel and the front face of the turret is not covered.

Building and painting tips

  • Cut the original barrel off at the face plate of the turret and level the surface.
  • Drill the hole gradually, from a thin bit up to the diameter of the barrel spigot.
  • Check the alignment of the angles from above while the glue is still setting.
  • A metal part is glued with super glue; cement for polystyrene does not hold on it.
  • Wash and degrease the barrel before painting, otherwise the paint will not hold on the smooth surface.
  • A base coat of paint for metal holds better than paint applied directly.

Terms of supply

The barrels alone are supplied, in the number given in the name. The ship model, the turrets, paints and glue are not included, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The length of the barrel in multiples of the caliber. The barrel is therefore fifty times longer than its caliber of 14 cm, which works out at roughly seven meters on the real gun.

Some turrets have the opening between the barrel and the front face covered by a canvas blast bag. These barrels are shaped for the version where the bag is absent.

Super glue. Cement for polystyrene does not hold on a turned part, because it has nothing to soften.

It is not. The barrels alone are supplied, unless stated otherwise.
