New from Adler's Nest, brass barrels for the Imperial Japanese Navy's Type 3 20cm cannon. These guns formed the main battery of Japan's World War II heavy cruisers.
These guns were also mounted on two early IJN aircraft carriers. The typical installation was ten 20 cm/50 guns although Tone class cruisers carried eight while Furutaka and Aoba class cruisers carried six. After her modernization from a 3 flight deck to a single flight deck carrier, the Akagi carried only six of the guns.

This set (No. ANN-0018) comes with guns and is available for ¥1,000 ($8.00 USD) plus shipping from Hobby Link Japan.
