USS Alabama (BB-60) Battleship
USS Alabama (BB-60) Battleship – 3,935 Piece Set
Pacific warrior. American steel.
USS Alabama (BB-60) served with distinction throughout the Pacific War, earning nine battle stars while never losing a crew member to enemy action—a remarkable safety record that earned her the nickname "Lucky A." Commissioned in 1942, this South Dakota-class battleship fought at Tarawa, the Philippines, and Okinawa, her nine 16-inch guns providing devastating fire support for Marine landings. Alabama's advanced radar-directed fire control and heavy anti-aircraft armament made her a valuable escort for carrier task forces. Now preserved as a museum ship in Mobile Bay, Alabama stands as a testament to American naval power in WWII.
This 1:700 scale build captures the imposing presence of WWII American naval might. From the triple 16-inch gun turrets and bristling anti-aircraft batteries to the tower mast and aircraft catapults, every detail reflects the floating fortress that was the WWII battleship.
