Dragon 1/350 Uss Gearing Dd-710 1945 Disc

The Dragon 1/350 USS Gearing DD-710 (1945) is a finely detailed plastic model kit of the lead ship of the Gearing-class destroyers, presented as she appeared in 1945. Packed with sharply rendered parts and precision detail, this HC-D1029 release delivers an impressive large-scale build for naval modellers.

Dragon equips this kit with all-new hull and superstructure parts for crisp fidelity. The distinctive 5-inch gun turrets are produced using three-directional slide moulds for sharp definition. Additional details, including twin 40mm anti-aircraft mounts, 20mm guns and searchlights, are derived from Dragon’s acclaimed Gleaves-class tooling, ensuring consistent quality across the build. A generous selection of photo-etched parts further refines the finish, and six miniature sailor figures add life and scale to your display.
