These submarines played a key role in the Pacific War campaign, conducting offensive operations against the Japanese navy and merchant shipping. USS Gato was launched in 1941 and carried out several challenging combat patrols until the end of the war, successfully destroying enemy vessels and transports. The submarine was designed for long-range missions and to endure the harsh conditions of service in the vast waters of the Pacific.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eFeatures of the Hobby Boss 87013 Model\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    This model faithfully replicates the design of the unit as it appeared in 1944. Impressively detailed hull, conning tower, and weaponry make this set an attractive project for both beginners and more advanced modelers. The model offers distinct panel lines, detailed torpedo section and bridge, as well as realistic deck guns and fittings.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eAdvantages of the Kit and Target Group\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    We recommend the Hobby Boss 87013 USS Gato SS-212 model to all ship modelers, naval history enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a detailed yet not overly complex modeling project. The 1\/700 scale means the completed model doesn't take up much space and looks great in dioramas or US Navy ship collections. The limited number of parts and easy-to-follow instructions make this a good starting choice for those new to maritime modeling.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit does not include glue or paints – these must be purchased separately.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hobby Boss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54722739470670,"sku":"HOBB87013","price":4.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/5149\/0638\/files\/e5081ee071edd1ec88ce1f784e15af5c.jpg?v=1755545430","url":"https:\/\/plastmodel.es\/en\/products\/47337-hobby-boss-87013-uss-gato-ss-212-1944-1700","provider":"Plastmodel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
