Dragon 1:350 scale USS Kidd DDG-993 1014 scale model kit

This 1/350 scale kit replicates the USS Kidd (DDG-993), the lead ship of her class of guided-missile destroyers. Originally designed for the Iranian Navy (and thus informally known as the "Ayatollah class"), these ships were based on the Spruance-class hull but outfitted with advanced heavy anti-air warfare capabilities for operations in the Persian Gulf.

Distinctive Configuration: Accurately reproduces the Kidd-class specific layout, distinguishing it from the Spruance-class by the inclusion of heavy air-defense weaponry.

Detailed Armament: Features precise replicas of the twin Mk 26 guided missile launchers (fore and aft), two 5-inch/54 caliber Mark 45 guns, Harpoon missile canisters, and Phalanx CIWS mounts.

Superstructure Detail: The superstructure is intricately molded to capture the complex array of masts, radar domes, and bridge windows.

Photo-Etched Parts: Includes a fret of photo-etched metal parts for fine detailing, such as deck railings and radar components.

Hull Options: typically designed with a full hull presentation in mind, including propeller and rudder details.

Decals: High-quality decals provided for ship markings.
