USS Arizona is a battleship that was launched during the Great War. During its service, the ship underwent modernization. Arizona was present at Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack on December 7, 1941. During the raid on board the ship there was a catastrophic detonation. Most of the crew were killed and the ship sank, becoming a symbol of the Japanese attack. The wreckage of the battleship has never been recovered. The elements of the superstructure protruding above the water surface were removed, leaving only the barbet of the third main artillery tower still above the waterline. In 1962, the USS Arizona mausoleum on the wreckage was opened.
The famous ship was designed in a scale of 1: 300 and is 24 inches long. Over 2,000 bricks will provide hours of exciting construction! Clear and intuitive instructions will easily guide you through this process.
