Product introduction
This is a plastic model assembly kit of the Japanese heavy cruiser Tone. 1/350 scale, total length 576mm, total width 71mm.

Recreates the Battle of Leyte Gulf in October 1945, when anti-aircraft guns and radar were strengthened. The upper part of the hull is split into left and right parts, and the lower part is integrally molded, creating a three-dimensional design with a smart form. Large parts such as the hull and deck can be assembled securely by screwing them to the reinforced frame parts. The main turret is expressed with delicate molding, including the panel lines and heat dissipation slits. You can choose between normal and firing barrels. The compact bridge structure, V-shaped canister air intake passage, and unique induction chimney are all faithfully reproduced in detail. The rear part of the hull is also finished with a sense of precision, including the carrier aircraft transport rail, turning platform, carrier aircraft transfer ramp, and large crane. The front and rear masts are made of ABS resin that is hard to break. The bridge windows and searchlight lenses are transparent parts. The anchor chain and propeller shaft are made of realistic metal. A Type 0 water reconnaissance aircraft is set as a carrier-based aircraft. A stand is also included to display it in flight. An exhibition pedestal with a metal nameplate sticker is available.


[A battle-tested heavy cruiser created by concentrated placement of main guns]
The Tone class was the last heavy cruiser built by the Japanese Navy.Of the two Tone class ships built, Tone was the first to be completed in November 1939.The main armament was four 20.3cm twin guns. The ship was characterized by a groundbreaking layout at the time, with all the equipment concentrated at the front of the ship, and the rear equipped with equipment that could carry up to six surface reconnaissance planes, which allowed for both gunfighting and enemy search capabilities. Moreover, due to its rational hull design, it achieved high speeds of up to 35 knots and a long cruising range. Her excellent enemy search ability and maneuverability attracted attention, and she was incorporated into the carrier task force along with her sister ship Chikuma. In 1944. When the Pacific War broke out in December, she fought hard as the eye of the fleet in the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Battle of Midway, and the Battle of the Marianas. Also, in October 1945, at the Battle of Leyte Gulf, she served as the vanguard of the Kurita fleet and took over the US escort aircraft carrier Gambia. She contributed to the sinking of the HMS Bay. Later, in March 1945, while anchored in Kure as a training ship for the Naval Academy, she was damaged by an air attack by U.S. carrier-based aircraft. In July of the same year, she was bombed again in Etajima Bay and was severely damaged. The war bottomed out and the war ended.
