What with the Tarriff contretemps it's a bit cruel to post that for any US modellers who might want one.

model is missing 2 of the docking keels as should be 8 of them, 2 each on either end, 2 medium length on either side of the keel & 2 longer ones near the outside edge of the hull. hull plating is overscaled & the stern area of the hull does not look right as looks somewhat the same but not as bad a concave as Revell's 1/429 scale USS Arizona. is also missing the armor belt that protects the rudder area.

Looks this is the same company that makes the 1/350 USS Smith DD-17.

Martin,

Thanks. It would be great if someone made a 1/350 USS Arizona that was correct. One can only hope.
