About product

USS Enterprise CV-6 in 1:200 from Trumpeter

An injection-molded plastic kit of the aircraft carrier CV-6 in 1:200. It is one of the largest ship models that can be obtained at all; in this scale even the small things of the flight deck, the galleries of anti-aircraft positions and the breakdown of the island stand out. The manufacturer is Trumpeter.

The real subject

Enterprise was the second ship of the Yorktown class and the best known American aircraft carrier of the Second World War. She earned the nickname Big E by taking part in a substantial part of the Pacific campaign: she was at the raid on the Marshall Islands, at Midway, at the fighting for Guadalcanal, in the battle of the Eastern Solomons and at Santa Cruz. She was heavily damaged several times and each time returned to service. She ranks among the most decorated American ships of all. Efforts to preserve her as a museum after the war did not succeed and the ship was broken up.

Building and painting tips

With a model of this size it pays to work in units: first the hull and the hangar deck, then the flight deck and finally the island and the armament. Paint the flight deck before you fit anything small onto it, and mask it while painting the sides of the hull. American camouflage schemes of the war years changed over time, so choose a period in advance and keep to one period appearance. The anti-aircraft positions are clearly seen in this scale, so it pays to fill and clean them up. For the finished model reckon with a long display case and a firm base.

Who the model is for

  • For collectors of aircraft carriers and of the equipment of the Pacific campaign
  • For modelers looking for a long-term project running several months
  • For experienced builders used to large hulls and extensive surfaces
  • For those interested in the US Navy of the Second World War

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

FAQ

She was the second unit of the Yorktown class. Her sister ships were Yorktown and Hornet.

The contents of the package are given in the instructions in the box. Look at them before building and plan any additions to the air group according to what is really in the box.

In 1:200 it is a model over a meter long. It is as well to think out the display case and the way of carrying it in advance.

The appearance of the ship changed markedly during the war, so choose a particular year and keep to a single period appearance.
