IJN Yahagi

1/700 IJN Yahagi (Tamiya)

Here's Tamiya's 1/700 light cruiser Yahagi, one of the last cruisers launched by the IJN. She was lost accompanying the battleship Yamato on her suicidal last mission in April 1945.

This kit is one of very good ones in the waterline series. It goes together well and builds into a beautiful model.
