Product Description ■ The 「 Rivermo-class 」 Destroyer is a 1500 ton class destroyer following the improved Sims class, the Benson class.
The cross-section of the engine and chimney is different from the Benson class, but the dimensions and performance are almost the same.
This class was built in 64 vessels from 1940 to 1943. It was the newest destroyer at the beginning of the Pacific War.
It was active as the core of the U.S. Navy destroyer during World War II.
As air combat became more important during World War II, the rear 12.7 cm guns and torpedo tubes were removed and air defense equipment was strengthened.
After the war, a small number of guns were transferred to Taiwan, Japan, and Turky.
The nameship 「 Rivermo-class 」 was completed in October 1940 and was active in the Atlantic and Mediterranean areas.
The kit recreates the image of 1941 when there was almost no renovation from the time of commissioning.
