About this product

Product Information

The 'ShipCraft' series provides in-depth information about building and modifying model kits of famous warship types. Lavishly illustrated, each book takes the modeler through a brief history of the subject class, highlighting differences between sisterships and changes in their appearance over their careers. This includes paint schemes and camouflage, featuring color profiles and highly-detailed line drawings and scale plans. The modeling section reviews the strengths and weaknesses of available kits, lists commercial accessory sets for super-detailing of the ships, and provides hints on modifying and improving the basic kit. This is followed by an extensive photographic survey of selected high-quality models in a variety of scales, and the book concludes with a section on research references - books, monographs, scale plans and relevant websites. The subject of this volume is the Fletcher class, often considered the most successful of all American destroyers. Built to the first design that was freed from treaty restrictions, they came into service near the beginning of the Pacific War and fought with distinction through all the most ferocious of the campaigns against Japan. They were constructed in large numbers, with a number of variations, and their popularity is reflected by the wide range of available kits.

4 out of 5 stars
by 65uscg69Jul 13, 2018
A generally good book that could use some added latter-day info.
The production, layout and text were all done very well. There were few errors. On Page 25, the Aurora USS HALFORD kit was also similar to the Revell FLETCHER/SULLIVANS kits being in the range of 1:305 scale. The post-WW2 service of these ships, including transfers to foreign navies was really too short. There were various modifications made in armaments and other deck equipment that might be of interest to a modeler and these were hardly mentioned.
