Fujimi KG-47 EX-1 1/700 IJN Battleship Musashi (1944/Sho Ichigo Operation) Full Hull with PE parts

The battleship Musashi was the second ship of the Yamato-class, the last type of ship designed and constructed by the Imperial Japanese Navy, and was completed in August 1942 at the Kure Naval Arsenal, the year after the outbreak of war. It was an unprecedented vessel, equipped with nine 46-cm guns, the largest in the world, and displacing 64,000 tons. On the same day of completion, it was incorporated into the Combined Fleet. In this era, aircraft were becoming the main force, and Musashi was refitted to strengthen its anti-aircraft armament, and deployed in the Battle of the Mariana Islands and the Battle of Leyte Gulf. In October 1944, the US military landed in the Philippines, and Musashi participated in Operation Sho-Ichi-Go (Battle of Leyte Gulf) as part of a fleet that brought together the full strength of the Combined Fleet, including Yamato and Nagato, but was sunk in the Sibuyan Sea by an air attack.
