Scale: 1/350
Notice: These masts are not printable in smaller scales including 1/700 scale. In scales smaller than 1/350, the cage masts become too fragile to survive brutal printing and cleaning processes.
Recommended for: These accurately sized, shaped and highly detailed models represent the cage masts of Colorado-class and Tennessee-class battleships as they appeared from the late 1930s through December 7th, 1941:
- USS Tennessee BB-43
- USS California BB-44
- USS Colorado BB-45
- USS Maryland BB-46
- USS Washington BB-47 (never completed)
- USS West Virginia BB-48
Overall dimensions scaled from official US Navy "Booklet of General Plans: USS West Virginia BB-48" dated November 30, 1939. Details were adjusted to match high-resolution photos of the actual ship obtained from the National Archives by Mr. Martin J. Quinn.
Features:
- detailed supporting structure
- service catwalks for the mainmast searchlight platform
- ship's bell
Install the mainmast so that the ship's bell is aft.
