Product Description
[Special Feature: -If We Go to Sea-- The Battle of Cape Bōno, the Okinawa Naval Suicide Attack, the last operation by large surface warships of the Imperial Japanese Navy]
In April 1945, in order to counter the Allied forces that landed in Okinawa, the Imperial Japanese Navy issued Operation Ten-Go 1.
On the 6th of the same month, the Second Torpedo Squadron, with the battleship Yamato as its flagship, sortied towards Okinawa, and the Battle of Cape Bōno broke out between them and US Navy carrier-based aircraft attempting to intercept them.
In the next issue, we will recreate the ships that participated in this naval battle using 3D printed parts, which are becoming increasingly common these days.
We will also introduce the 31st Squadron, which accompanied the ship to the exit of the Bungo Strait, and the Oshima Transport Unit, which met up with the ship in the sea southwest of Kyushu.
Furthermore, we also feature a review of Yamashita Hobby's highly anticipated new product, the destroyer Fuyutsuki.
