About product

The battleship Haruna 1944 from the Warship Next line in 1:700 scale

A kit of the Japanese fast battleship Haruna from the manufacturer Fujimi in the modern Warship Next line. The parts are molded in matching colors and snap together — the model can be built without glue and without painting. The state shown is that of 1944, when Haruna took part in the Battle of Leyte as part of Operation Sho-1 with her anti-aircraft armament fully expanded.

The real subject

Haruna belonged to the four ships of the Kongo class, built during the First World War as battlecruisers and later modernized twice into fast battleships. Thanks to a speed of around 30 knots these ships escorted carrier groups and strike groups throughout the war in the Pacific. In October 1944 Haruna joined Operation Sho-1 — the defense of the Philippines — and survived the Battle of Leyte. She was not lost until July 1945, during the air raids on the base at Kure, where she settled on the bottom after hits.

Building and painting tips

The build needs no glue — just take care to separate the parts cleanly from the frames. Anyone who wants to take the model further can add a fine dark wash in the deck detail, toning of the smoke stains around the funnel and photo-etched railings in 1:700 scale.

Who the model is for

  • For beginners — an easy build without glue and painting
  • For modelers building ships from the Battle of Leyte
  • For collectors of the Kongo class and of fast battleships

The kit is supplied unassembled. The parts are molded in color and snap together without glue; paints and other accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No, the Warship Next line uses parts molded in color and snap-fit joints. Paints and a wash serve only for optional improvement.

It was the Japanese plan for the defense of the Philippines in the autumn of 1944, which culminated in the Battle of Leyte. The model captures Haruna in her configuration from precisely that period.

In 1:700 scale the length of a Kongo-class ship works out at roughly 31 cm; the manufacturer does not state the exact dimensions in its own catalog.
