It actually began life as the USS Kearsarge, but was renamed Hornet after its namesake (CV-8) was lost in 1942. This aircraft carrier served with distinction in the Pacific campaign of WWII, as well as the Vietnam War, before the large vessel was decommissioned in 1970. The U.S. Navy carrier was involved in such famous WWII battles as the occupation of the Marshall Islands, New Guinea, Caroline Islands, Mariana Islands, Tinian, Saipan, Guam, Iwo Jima, Philippine Sea, Leyte Gulf and Okinawa, with its embarked aircraft wreaking havoc on enemy forces. It served at the forefront of the U.S. Navy fleet, and was engaged in combat for 16 continuous months. Although attacked by air 59 times, it was never hit. Furthermore, its complement of fighters succeeded in destroying a staggering figure of 1410 Japanese aircraft! While the U.S.S. Hornet is today preserved in Alameda, California, as a National Historic Landmark, modelers can now get their hands on their very own version of this famous carrier. Dragon has launched a new 1/700 scale kit of the U.S.S. Hornet as it appeared in 1945 during extended actions in the Pacific. This means it has the appropriate new radar array on the superstructure, plus the correct selection of armaments such as the deck-mounted 5-inch twin turrets. The kit is high on accuracy and detail, with the designers resorting widely to multimedia materials and slide-molded parts. As with previous Essex-class kits, this model comes with both waterline and full-hull versions. Its all-important complement of fighters is made in transparent plastic for greater ease of painting and realism. Dragon has given the U.S.S. Hornet a new lease of life, and modelers will enjoy the pivotal appearance of this famous aircraft carrier! <LI>SKU: DML7085 <LI>Ordering History: 6-D6 <LI>Date First Stocked: 7/1/2009 Other products in the category <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category17" TITLE="Naval">Naval</A> / <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category43" TITLE="Kits">Kits</A> / <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category172" TITLE="1/400 Scale or Smaller">1/400 Scale or Smaller</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product16723 TITLE="1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007">1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007</A> -- 1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product20527 TITLE="1:481 Revell Monogram USS Helena Heavy Cruiser #850370">1:481 Revell Monogram USS Helena Heavy Cruiser #850370</A> -- 1:481 Revell Monogram USS Helena Heavy Cruiser #850370 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product8186 TITLE="1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001">1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001</A> -- 1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product174 TITLE="1:700 Dragon DDG USS Arleigh Burke #7029">1:700 Dragon DDG USS Arleigh Burke #7029</A> -- 1:700 Dragon DDG USS Arleigh Burke #7029 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product175 TITLE="1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043">1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043</A> -- 1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product176 TITLE="1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060">1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060</A> -- 1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product17975 TITLE="1:700 Dragon German Battleship Tirpitz ~ Premium Edition #7081">1:700 Dragon German Battleship Tirpitz ~ Premium Edition #7081</A> -- 1:700 Dragon German Battleship Tirpitz ~ Premium Edition #7081 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product11970 TITLE="1:700 Dragon H.M.S.
