Trumpeter 1/350 USS Lassen DDG-82 Arleigh Burke-Class Destroyer
Build a detailed 1/350 scale replica of the USS Lassen (DDG-82), a Flight IIA Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer of the United States Navy. Trumpeter's kit features finely molded plastic parts, detailed deck and superstructure components, photo-etched parts, and decals for an authentic finished model.
The kit can be built as either a full-hull or waterline display model, making it a versatile choice for modern U.S. Navy ship modelers. The Flight IIA configuration includes the characteristic expanded stern and hangar arrangement designed to accommodate two SH-60 Seahawk helicopters.
With 487 parts and a finished length of approximately 17.5 inches, this is an impressive centerpiece for a modern naval collection or carrier strike group display.
Beginner-Friendly Assembly Note: While this is a large and detailed model kit, it can be a good choice for modelers who are ready to move beyond smaller or simpler kits. The large 1/350 scale provides room to work with the parts, but the extensive detail and photo-etched components make careful assembly and patience important. Beginners may want to take their time and build the kit in manageable sections.
