{"product_id":"4950344780303","title":"1\/350 IJN Yamato","description":"■Product Description\u003cbr\u003e\r\n [The legendary giant battleship that symbolizes the Imperial Japanese Navy]\u003cbr\u003eThe giant battleship \"Yamato,\" which demonstrated the high level of Japanese shipbuilding technology to the world, was laid down at the Kure Naval Arsenal in November 1937 and completed in December 1941. With a waterline length of 256m, a maximum width of 38.9m, and a displacement of approximately 70,000 tons, it was equipped with nine massive 46cm caliber guns. Its size and armament were the largest and most powerful in the world at the time. The 46cm main guns had a maximum range of 41km and had the power to penetrate 43cm thick armor plate at a distance of 30km. On the other hand, in terms of defense, it used approximately 21,000 tons of defensive armor plate, which was 30% of the standard displacement. The overall length of the ship was shortened as much as possible, and important parts such as the bridge, turrets, and engine room were kept to a minimum. It achieved high defensive capabilities by employing a concentrated defense system that gathered the core in the center. Furthermore, the most distinctive feature of its underwater shape is the bulbous bow at the front. The spherical bow, which extends 3 meters forward, combined with other ingenious designs, reduces wave resistance, resulting in a ship shape with excellent propulsion efficiency. These technologies have been passed down as a legacy to the Japanese shipbuilding industry after the war. The Yamato, which participated in battles such as Midway and the Battle of Leyte Gulf and reigned supreme in the Pacific, was finally sunk into the sea on April 7, 1945, while en route to Okinawa as part of Operation Ten-Go (Operation Kikusui), after being attacked by more than 300 American Navy aircraft. ■Product Specifications\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: Tamiya\u003cbr\u003eItem No: 78030\u003cbr\u003eScale: 1\/350\u003cbr\u003eJAN: 4950344780303\u003cbr\u003eRemarks\u003cbr\u003e [Model Specifications] This is a plastic model assembly kit of the Japanese Navy battleship \"Yamato,\" which boasted the world's largest and most powerful presence during World War II. ● Scale 1\/350.
