We will start our releases this year with the USS Salem CA-139. We are very excited about this kit as it was a very popular kit back in the Yankee Modelworks resin days.

This is awesome, about time more cruisers are introduced. They were iconic in protection of fleet carriers and shore bombardment. Very much overlooked in the model community.
