Responsibility details are not available.
An injection-molded plastic model of the American guided missile destroyer USS Curtis Wilbur with hull number DDG-54 in 1:200 scale. For modern warships, 1:200 is the largest scale commonly available and means a model almost a meter long, so think out the room in a cabinet and the method of mounting in advance. The detail of the superstructure, the radars and the armament is legible without a magnifier.
USS Curtis Wilbur belongs to the Arleigh Burke class, the most numerous class of guided missile destroyers of the US Navy. She is a ship of the first batch, recognizable in that she has no hangar for a helicopter behind the flight deck. The ship's key capability is the Aegis combat system with large flat radar antennas built into the superstructure and the vertical launch cells from which the ship fires anti-aircraft missiles and missiles against land targets alike. A 127 mm gun on the bow completes them. Curtis Wilbur served from the middle of the 1990s and spent a large part of her career at a forward base in Japan.
On a ship of this size it pays to proceed in sections: finish and paint the hull first and only then fit the superstructure and the fine deck equipment. Photo-etched railings and ladders are not a matter of course in every package, but they are what makes the greatest difference on a model of a warship. Lay the gray of the hull and superstructure on with an airbrush in thin coats and work with gentle shading of the individual surfaces, or a large model will flatten out visually. Think out in advance whether you want the ship on the water or the whole hull on a stand, because the preparation of the lower part follows from it.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
