About product

USS Astoria (CA-34) 1942 in 1:700 scale from Trumpeter

This injection-molded plastic kit captures an American New Orleans class heavy cruiser in her 1942 condition. The hull can be built at full depth on a stand or as a waterline version. The box contains gun turrets of 203 mm, finely worked superstructure, catapult-launched shipboard aircraft, a display stand and a decal sheet.

The real subject

USS Astoria was a heavy cruiser of the New Orleans class. In the Second World War she took part in the Battle of the Coral Sea and the Battle of Midway. In August 1942 she was sunk at the Battle of Savo Island in the opening phase of the fighting for Guadalcanal. Her main battery consisted of nine guns of 203 mm.

Building and painting tips

Thin plastic cement, a primer and an airbrush are the answer; the American Measure camouflage schemes are typical for 1942. Paint the hull and the decks before the armament is fitted. The look is picked out by photo-etched railings and rigging, which are not included in the package.

Who the model is for

  • anyone interested in American heavy cruisers of the Second World War
  • collectors of the New Orleans class in 1:700 scale
  • modelers with experience of plastic kits
