An interesting release from trumpeter (1/350 Midway)

[@acescalemodeling]

Hey guys, sorry for the low FPS in the video( don’t know what happened). This might be a better listen then watch. I’ll do better next time!

About time they came out with a Korean war carrier. I'd like them to do a 1950s Essex carrier too! The USS Oriskany (Bridges at Toko Ri) version would be heaven

But Mideay never served in the Korean War. They need to do a Essex for that.

The kit should be good for 1945-1955 with very easy lifting in terms of scratch building. Midway stayed pretty much “as built” for her first decade. AA fit and radar suite were the biggest changes I can see. As for post SCB-110 and beyond, nothing is impossible for someone willing to do a lot of modifications. Personally, I’ve always thought it’s easier to go forwards in time than backwards when building a model from an existing commercial kit. All in all, it’s another 1/350 injection molded kit that has been missing. Definitely can’t wait for my preorder to arrive!

Pour le navire Français c'est le porte hélicoptère JEANNE D'ARC bien connu dans le monde entier . La version du USS MIDWAY reste a définir ,l'absence d'avion sur le pont laisse un doute sur l'époque . Le pont d'envol droit peut soit en faire un modèle sortit de son chantier naval soit un porte avion de la guerre de Corée .

J'ai tendance à croire que cette version de l'USS Midway proviendra de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, car Scalemates l'a répertorié comme version 1945. Je crois également que les supports Bofors ont été retirés pendant la guerre de Corée, mais le kit les inclut. J'espère que c'est une version de la guerre de Corée, ce serait un bon changement de rythme. Merci d'avoir regardé !

You keep saying postwar. What post war you talking about? Midway didn't serve in WW2 but it did in Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf war. So which post war you talking about? Lol You know what is a hole in ships in general? Korean war era ships and definitely aircraft carriers carrying destroyers and Skyraiders and Corsairs, Panthers, and cougars. Between that and no USS Oklahoma and USS Washington and South Dakota (1942) battle of savo island. You'd think the only ships involved in a battleship vs battleship battle would've in plastic. Thinking Washington is the only US battleship to sink another battleship in the entire war

[@acescalemodeling]

I meant to say post ww2 as that was the conflict it was originally supposed to serve in. Yeah I agree on that a Korean War carrier would be great, however I don’t think this one is gonna be it . There is a uss North Carolina, I don’t know how hard that would be to convert to Washington. I think it’s kinda crazy that there is still no 1/350 Baltimore class cruiser.

Midway did not serve in Korea.
