Ships of this class played an important role in, among others, the Battle of the Coral Sea, the Battle of Midway, and the Guadalcanal campaign, serving as part of the famous Tokyo Express. Despite restrictions imposed by disarmament treaties, the Shiratsuyu-class design proved highly effective: ships were armed with five 127 mm guns, eight 610 mm torpedo tubes, and depth charge throwers, making them a substantial force in Pacific waters. Weaknesses, such as limited anti-aircraft armament, were gradually addressed during the war.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: \u003cstrong\u003e1\/700\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of service: \u003cstrong\u003eJapan\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePeriod of use: \u003cstrong\u003eWorld War II\u003c\/strong\u003e (1936–1944)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCategory: Plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: \u003cstrong\u003eHigh-quality plastic\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSet: \u003cstrong\u003e10 pieces\u003c\/strong\u003e of Shiratsuyu-class destroyer models\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSprues faithfully reproducing deck, weapon, and superstructure details\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAssembly instructions with clear diagrams\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    These models are dedicated mainly to intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level: \u003cstrong\u003e3\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e).
