Commemorate a pivotal moment in naval history with the Dragon 1/700 USS Arizona BB-39 w/Type 97 set (HC-D7127). This practical combination pairs Dragon’s Premium Edition USS Arizona battleship with two Nakajima B5N2 Type 97 “Kate” torpedo bombers, allowing modellers to recreate a scene inspired by the events at Pearl Harbour. The battleship kit is enhanced with photo-etched parts and metal barrels for the large naval guns, while clever engineering streamlines assembly without compromising detail.
The included “Kate” aircraft are newly tooled and moulded in transparent plastic, making it easier to paint while preserving clear cockpit glazing. With slide-moulded components, a one-piece lower hull and finely rendered fittings throughout, this set offers an impressive balance of accuracy and buildability for ship and aviation enthusiasts alike.

As the 70th anniversary of the Pearl Harbour attack approaches, Dragon is launching a very practical set consisting of a 1/700 scale USS Arizona model as well as two “Kate” torpedo bombers protagonists. These two elements – battleship and aircraft - can once again meet in a head-on confrontation.
The ship kit is the previously released Premium Edition item, which means it’s well-endowed with photo-etched parts and metal barrels for the large naval guns. Clever engineering removes much of the hard work from assembly too. On the other hand, the two B5N2 aircraft are completely new items from new toolings. They are moulded in transparent plastic so that modellers can paint them more easily and retain clear glazing for the cockpit canopies. For those modellers wishing to reproduce a scene from that historically dramatic day, you can’t get much better than this set!
