1/700 Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) Defense ship DD-118 Fuyuzuki (Waterline)

This is a plastic model kit, which comes unassembled and unpainted. So glue, model paints and other basic modelling tools are additionally required.

Fuyukuzi is the fourth vessel of the Akizuki-class destroyer, built at the Tamano Plant of Mitsui Engineering and Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. The name of the ship was from the Imperial Japanese Navy destroyer which survived WWII, and assigned to JMSDF Escort Squadron 7 of the Escort Flotilla 3. The upper structure of the ship features stealth capabilities. The radar of the C-FCS-3 fire control systems on the helicopter hangar and the stern flap give her a distinctive look. She is armed with a wide range of weaponry--the main gun is an Mk45 5-inch fitted forward in the vessel, Type 90 ship-to-ship missiles (SSM), Mk41 vertical launch system, two 324mm HOS-303 triple torpedo tubes, and two 20mm Phalanx Block1B CIWS. Besides that, the destroyer is equipped with a new anti-torpedo system, such as FAJ, MOD and Type 4 towed torpedo decoys, expected to safeguard the other Aegis guided warships of the JMSDF.
