USS Alabama BB-60, 1/350 - Trumpeter 05307

Release scheduled for September 2026.

The reference 05307 from Trumpeter offers a static plastic model kit of the USS Alabama (BB-60) at 1/350 scale. This American battleship of the South Dakota class is depicted in a 1942 configuration, featuring a Measure 12 camouflage scheme indicated for the decoration.

The USS Alabama was commissioned into the US Navy in August 1942. During World War II, it first operated in the North Atlantic before joining the Pacific theater, where it took part in US naval operations until the end of the conflict.

Once assembled, the model measures 592.3 mm in length and 94.2 mm in width. At 1/350 scale, it provides an impressive naval replica, suitable for display on a stand or for incorporation into a maritime diorama.

The kit includes a total of 520 parts distributed across 12 sprues, including clear parts intended for two Kingfisher seaplanes. It allows you to build the ship in waterline configuration or with a full hull. A decal sheet is provided for the suggested decoration.

Assembly requires the usual supplies for modelers: plastic glue, side cutters, a precision knife, sanding paper, and paints. Applying a primer helps prepare the surfaces before painting, while a restrained weathering can bring out deck structures, the artillery, and hull details.
