This model represents the boat deck and casemate, officially known as the "superstructure deck",  of Pennsylvania-class battleship USS Arizona BB-39 as she appeared in 1941.  The model is intended to replace the inaccurately shaped and poorly detailed boat deck and casemate found in plastic kits.
 
Features:
Fully assembled.
Overall dimensions and features scaled from official US Navy shipyard construction drawings obtained from the US National Archives.
Accurately shaped deck, vents, and splinter shields.
Planked deck with outer waterways.
Recess for funnel is an accurate ellipse, not an incorrect oval with slab sides, and matches the footprint of the Model Monkey-designed funnel, available separately.
Doors of the correct 3-bar type.
Skylights and hatches accurately sized and located.
Accurate portholes of the correct size (standard US Navy 12" diameter), properly positioned.
integrated barbette for 14"/45 cal. triple-gun Turret #2.  A set of 14"/45 cal. turrets is available separately.
 
Notice: this model was designed from scans of the real USS Arizona's shipyard construction drawings for maximum accuracy.  Compared to the corresponding parts found in your plastic kit, this 3D-printed model may be differently sized and shaped.  Significant modifications to your plastic kit may be required for best fit.  Other aftermarket products designed to fit the inaccurately shaped and sized parts in your plastic kit, such as wood decks, may not fit this 3D-printed model.
 
A set of 5"/51 cal. deck guns is available from Kraken Hobbies.  The 5"/51 cal. guns were positioned inside the casemate.
