It is modeled on the U.S. Navy’s 27,100-ton
Essex-class aircraft carrier commissioned in 1944.
This Dragon kit is vastly different to any previously released Essex-class
carriers. It also includes fighters for the Korean War era, including
a brand new tooling of the F9F-2 and AD attack jet aircraft, as well as the
veteran F4U-F Corsair. There is even a HO3S Dragonfly helicopter!
There are photo-etched parts to upgrade and improve the high-quality molded
plastic parts like railings and radars.

About the U.S. Bon Homme Richard:
This carrier saw combat in the final raids against
Japan, but was recalled to active duty with the outbreak of the Korean War. It
had a couple of combat tours in the Korean War before undergoing conversion work
in 1953 to allow operations of high-performance jet aircraft. This replica shows
the USS Bon Homme Richard as she appeared during the Korean War. Her aircraft
launched strikes against North Korean targets such as the heavy bombing of the
Sui-ho hydroelectric dam in June 1952, and on the city of Pyongyang.
