Hi All,
We decided to release 1/350 San Antonio Class Detail up set.
The base kit is Trumpeter 1/350 LPD-21 New York. So LPD-21 is basic but we will try to realize other sister ships as many as possible.
At this time our designer Mr. Hong, S.W. manages whole contents.
Mr. Hong designed Sevastopol mainly and he has many Russian fans now.
I am sure Modern USS fans will be had to get this set.

This set will have contents as

1. Photo Etching parts
Many of us think Modern ships may have not so vast Frets of PE but at this time 3 large Frets will be included.
Whole stern deck will be included with all right location tie-down and spring coolers and etc.
Deck helicopter flight lines also will be included rightly.
And Cat walks, Rails, Crane etc.

2. Turned brass parts:
All possible turned brass parts will be included as always.
All HF antennas, barrels including Cal 50, Bitts etc.

3. Resin.
Veteran model parts.

4. Dry Transfer
Water draft marks, stern deck Helicopter landing lines decoration etc.


5. Etc.
If you have this set, we try to do you need not buy other material as few as possible.
So some more materials may be added.

Releasing date:
Late April you can order this set.

Keep your eyes on this Thread.

If you have any suggestion or advice, please post and leave message on this thread.

Thank you
Keumho Kim

Mk.1 Design have released their set and as far as i can see, they have included some intake vents for the funnels, what i would like to have incuded in your set, are all those air intake vents all around the the superstructure. Thanks, keep up your good work. :thumbs_up_1:

I've just found this thread! I'm amazed! YES YES YES!! Keep doing US modern navy!

So the whole flight deck will be replaced with PE like on the Iowa class ships? Do you think you will see a whole PE deck for the Enterprise ??

Very good job Kim,

BTW do you have plan to construct set for USS Arligh Burke class destroyer .I am under construction of USS Momsen DDG Flight II class, but for the moment only on the market is present set from WEM Company which is good but missing a lot of details to build complete model. :thumbs_up_1: :wave_1:

Brgds,
G.S.

I have both the kit and WEM set, a Pontos set for the US destroyer would be a great feature!

Modern midships need not too much time as WWII BBs.
And our New Designers. Mr. Hong(doing New York) and Mr. Chung(Perry) will be focus on main Modern ships.
After some careers, they will start LHD and CVN...

Thank you
Kim
