- HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Iowa Class Battleship USS Missouri (BB-63) is a legendary warship with a rich history spanning several decades and conflicts. Commissioned in June 1944, the USS Missouri played a pivotal role in World War II, particularly in the Pacific theater. The ship became famous as the site of the Japanese surrender ceremony on its deck in Tokyo Bay, officially ending the war. The Missouri's impressive firepower, advanced technology, and robust construction made it a symbol of American naval might during this era.
After World War II, the USS Missouri was decommissioned but was later reactivated to serve in the Korean War, providing naval gunfire support for ground forces. Subsequently, the battleship was placed in reserve but underwent modernization in the 1980s, bringing it back into service during Operation Desert Storm in 1991. The Missouri contributed its firepower once again, launching Tomahawk missiles and conducting naval bombardments in support of coalition forces.
The 1:700 scale Waterline display version model is designed for waterline display, allowing enthusiasts to showcase the ship's impressive profile without the need for a full hull. With meticulous attention to detail, this replica features the Missouri's main and secondary armaments, radar systems, and other distinctive elements that make it a standout addition to any naval history or military model collection.
