Tatsuta and her sister ship Tenryu were tough Japanese light cruisers commissioned just after the First World War and used in WWII. Tatsuta followed Tenry?? into the Second Sino-Japanese war then, during WWII, fought at Wake Island, off Guadalcanal, and extensively in the waters around New Guinea before catching a torpedo from USS Sand Lance in 1944. The vessels of the Tenry?? class were new designs intended to lead destroyer flotillas. Long, thin, and fast for cruisers, their only flaws were in their light armament. Kit features two sets of decals and full photo-etched parts set.
