Responsibility details are not available.
An injection-molded plastic kit of the light cruiser Phoenix. The main purchasing distinction is the level of the edition: this is the Deluxe edition, that is the middle of three levels. The manufacturer keeps this line in three levels: Standard builds on plastic and decals, Deluxe adds detailing extras and Platinum is the highest level. The extent differs between individual vessels, so check the contents on the packaging. The manufacturer also releases the same ship in the Standard version. The designation CL-46 belongs to a light cruiser.
The Phoenix was a Brooklyn class light cruiser, accepted into service on 3 October 1938. During the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941 she came through without damage and then served out the war in the Pacific. She was decommissioned in 1946, in 1951 the Argentine Navy acquired her and later she was given the name General Belgrano. Under that name, on 2 May 1982 in the war over the Falklands, she was sunk by the British nuclear submarine Conqueror. The kit captures the American service of the vessel; check the particular year of the configuration on the packaging.
Decide between the full hull and the waterline, as the choice of stand depends on that too. The five gun turrets of the main armament and the stern hangar with catapults are the main surfaces of detail on the Brooklyn class. Fit the photo-etched railings only after the hull has been painted and join the metal parts with cyanoacrylate. Paint the decks separately and paint the small armament while still on the sprue.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not part of the package, unless stated otherwise.
