[Approaching the history-changing naval battle off Murray]
――The Waterline series reproduces various historical stories in it.
――The heroic historical romance that unfolded in the seven seas is all drama that can not fit on the 1/700 scale.
--The Prince of Wales, a classic ship model in the Waterline series, is one of the battleships that has made a name for itself in history.
――We are approaching the Battle of Murray, which has become a turning point in history.
--The first naval battle between aircraft and battleships in history off the coast of Murray. The protagonists were the up-and-coming British battleship Prince of Wales and the Japanese Navy Air Service's Type 96 Land Attack and Complete Land Attack.
--On December 10, 1941, immediately after the start of the Pacific War, the Prince of Wales, which was attacked by the Japanese Navy Air Service's torpedoes and bombs off the coast of Kuantan on the Malay Peninsula, sank into the sea while struggling. ¡
--The Royal Navy has already recognized the threat of aircraft and has also strengthened the Prince of Wales with early warning radar and anti-aircraft weapons.
――Nevertheless, the battleship in operation was sunk only by the attack of the aircraft.
――This naval battle was a historical turning point that had a great impact on the world's navy and signaled the end of the era of large warships.
