USS Franklin (CV-13) was an Essex-class aircraft carrier commissioned in 1944. On 19 March 1945, off the coast of Japan, she was hit by bombs from a single enemy aircraft, and the ensuing fires and explosions killed hundreds of her crew. The crew saved the ship, which returned to the USA under her own power but never went back into active service.
According to the box, the Trumpeter kit in 1/700 scale comprises 637 parts on 32 sprues, plus separately moulded lower and upper hull, decks, a waterline plate and a display stand. The finished model is 377.7 mm long.
The box art shows the ship in a camouflage scheme with geometric patterns, which is a striking feature of the model in 1/700. With the choice between full hull and waterline, the model suits a display cabinet as well as a naval diorama. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
