Scale: 1/400
Set includes 3 mounts (turrets). No barrels.
These three models represent the US Navy's 5 inch, 38 caliber single mount. This "Lightweight", or "Single Knuckle" version, was normally placed in locations where additional turret roof reinforcement was not required. Fletcher-class destroyers, when built, carried three of these mounts, all located on top of deckhouses known as Mounts 52, 53 and 54.
To complete a Fletcher-class destroyer model, you also need the two "Double Knuckle" mounts located on the main deck (Mounts 51 and 55). Main deck "Double Knuckle" mounts of a slightly different shape are available separately (click here).
Features:
- an asymmetrical gunhouse (turret)
- slot for accurately offset gun barrel (barrels not included)
- detailed turret bottom supporting structure
