Eduard 53316 USS Midway CV-41 part 3 TRUMPETER 1/350

Eduard 53316 USS Midway CV-41 part 3 TRUMPETER 1/350 is an advanced photo-etched accessory set in the prestigious 1:350 scale, created especially for the USS Midway CV-41 aircraft carrier model by Trumpeter. A model in this scale allows for an extremely detailed replica of the famous American vessel used by the United States Navy (US Navy).

Eduard 53316 photo-etched accessories focus on the external detail of the hull and the equipment on the aircraft carrier's deck, including superstructure elements and intricate deck infrastructure details which are practically impossible to achieve with plastic parts alone. This makes it possible to reproduce, with exceptional fidelity, items such as railings, ladders, panels, rescue equipment, or small technical installations.

USS Midway CV-41 was one of the most recognizable aircraft carriers of the post-war US Navy, belonging to the Midway class. She entered service at the end of World War II—on September 10, 1945—and remained active for almost another 50 years. The ship took part in numerous operations during the Cold War, Korean War, Vietnam War, and Operation Desert Storm (1991). Today, it serves as a museum ship in San Diego.

The presented set contains precisely chemically-etched brass elements. Thanks to this technology, we obtain extremely sharp and realistic details that perfectly match the Trumpeter base model. Each part is carefully designed for self-assembly, allowing for even more authentic reproduction of the original vessel. The product does not include plastic or resin parts; the entire set consists of photo-etched accessories.
