1/700 Trumpeter USS Missouri BB-63 Battleship Waterline Plastic Model Kit

$42.50 $50.00

Build one of the most famous battleships in naval history with the 1/700 Trumpeter USS Missouri BB-63 Battleship Waterline Plastic Model Kit. Known as the last battleship commissioned by the United States Navy, USS Missouri (BB-63) played a pivotal role during World War II, the Korean War, and Operation Desert Storm. She is best remembered as the site where Japan formally surrendered on September 2, 1945, bringing World War II to an end.

This highly detailed 1/700 scale waterline kit accurately captures the powerful appearance of the Iowa-class battleship. Trumpeter has faithfully reproduced the ship's sleek hull, heavily armed superstructure, triple 16-inch gun turrets, secondary armament, radar systems, anti-aircraft weapons, and deck details. The waterline format makes it ideal for realistic ocean dioramas or display alongside other vessels in a naval collection.

Despite its compact scale, the kit offers crisp molding and excellent detail, providing an enjoyable project for both experienced ship modelers and those new to modern naval subjects. It also serves as an outstanding foundation for additional photo-etch, rigging, and advanced weathering techniques.

Whether displayed alone or as part of a larger Pacific Fleet collection, the USS Missouri remains one of the most iconic warships ever built.
