Overview

Build a colossal replica of the warship that defined a new era of naval power with the Trumpeter 1/350 scale USS Nimitz. Commissioned in 1975, the nuclear-powered CVN-68 became the largest and most powerful warship in the world, a symbol of American naval might for decades to come. This incredible kit allows you to recreate the legendary supercarrier as she appeared during her first year of service.

This is a monumental project for the serious ship modeller, resulting in a finished model that is nearly a full metre in length. The kit is packed with an astounding level of detail, offering the choice to build either a full-hull version for display on the included stand or a waterline version to create a dramatic seascape diorama. The hangar deck is fully detailed, ready to be filled with the massive and impressive air wing.

The highlight of this kit is the huge assortment of 22 carrier aircraft included. You get a complete 1975-era air wing, including F-4 Phantoms, A-6 Intruders, A-7 Corsair IIs, and even an SH-3 Sea King helicopter. Many of these miniature aircraft feature special details like clear canopies, optional folded wings, and even a clear fuselage on the helicopter. This kit is the definitive way to build an awe-inspiring model of this iconic supercarrier.
