"The USS Juneau, an Atlanta-class light cruiser commissioned on 14 February 1942, had a short life.

However, this vessel now lives on in the form of a 1/700 scale model from Dragon. This model kit has been given a host of upgrades to make assembly even easier for modelers.

The choice of a waterline or full-hull version is also offered. The model is more accurate than ever too, with the inclusion of such items as photo-etched components for deck railings and the radar mast.

The ship’s armaments are all highly detailed, from 20mm cannons, 40mm Bofors cannons through to the 120mm main guns.
