■Product Description
The USS Honolulu was one of the Brooklyn-class light cruisers of the United States Navy. Named after the city of Honolulu in Hawaii, it was the second ship to bear that name. While anchored at Pearl Harbor at the start of the Pacific War, the ship was lightly damaged by dive bombing. After repairs, it participated in the Battle of Lunga Point in 1942, the Battle of Kula Gulf in 1943, and the Battle of Kolombangara. In 1944, it headed to the Philippines to support the invasion of Leyte, but was damaged by an aerial torpedo in Leyte Gulf and withdrew from the front lines. After repairs in Norfolk, it remained there until the end of the war. The USS Honolulu was awarded eight battle stars for its service in World War II. The kit consists of an injection-molded plastic body. The "Standard Edition" includes decals, while the "Deluxe Edition" includes photo-etched parts, metal gun barrels, deck mask stickers, etc., in addition to the contents of the "Standard Edition". This is a wonderful kit that recreates the appearance of Honolulu in a waterline model with delicate details.
