Tamiya 78019 Japanese Navy Submarine I-400 1/350 Model Kit
Item No: 25426.
The I-400 was an unprecedented submergible aircraft carrier that could launch three Seiran aircraft. With a 122m length, 12m width, and a 6560-ton submerged displacement, its size was similar to a destroyer, making it the largest submarine of its time. It featured the ability to travel one and a half times around the globe without refueling or restocking. Construction finished in December 1944, the I-400 and its sister vessel, the I-401, were en route to the U.S. Naval base at Ulithi when WWII ended. Thanks to its superior design, the I-400 is considered the precursor to modern strategic nuclear missile submarines.
This high-quality 1/350 scale assembly kit features accurately reproduced hull details with two-piece construction for upper and lower sections. The hangar hatch can be modeled in both open and closed positions for display versatility. Precision-made photo-etched parts depict the crane arm and antenna array with exceptional realism. Metal propeller screw shafts add authentic detail, while included parts allow you to display the Seiran aircraft with wings in extended or folded positions. Photo-etched parts are provided for aircraft propellers and dollies. A special display base is included for finished presentation.
