About product

USS West Virginia BB-48 (1941) 1:700 (Trumpeter)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American battleship USS West Virginia as she was in 1941, in 1:700 scale from the manufacturer Trumpeter. The model can be built with a full hull on a stand or in the version at the level of the water. The package holds photo-etched parts, decals, a base and a nameplate; the texture of the wooden deck is finely engraved.

The real subject

USS West Virginia was a battleship of the Colorado class carrying a main gun armament of 406 mm caliber. In December 1941 she was seriously damaged in the attack on Pearl Harbor, but she was later repaired, thoroughly modernized and returned to the fighting in the Pacific. The model captures her appearance of 1941.

Building and painting tips

Decide on a full hull or a waterline before you glue the hull together. You will accent the wooden deck with a thin wash, and glue the fine photo-etched railings and the masts with super glue. We recommend a primer, an airbrush for the period American grays of 1941 and a final matte varnish.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of American battleships in 1:700
  • Anyone interested in the history of the Pacific war and of Pearl Harbor
  • Modelers who can handle photo-etched parts
  • Builders who prefer a full hull as well as a waterline

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
