USNavy carriers project America's power worldwide, and AEGIS cruisersprotect them from air and surface missile attacks. Now a handcraftedfull-hull solid wood model of the USS Philippine Sea, one of the Navy's best AEGIS cruisers, is available for the first time ever in precise 1/700 scale. About10 inches long, this replica is carved by hand from mahogany wood andis heavily detailed with handcast resin and metal pieces. It comesready to display on an elegant, handmade, furniture-finish 11-inchdisplay base using hand-turned brass pedestals. A brass name platecompletes the display. Overall the quality of this modern cruiser modelwould command a $400 retail value, but it is now available at ourextremely low factory price. 

This is not a mass-producedmodel. Each museum-quality replica is handcrafted by master modelersand will make a perfect gift or memento for the sailor, ship ormilitary enthusiast. As such it is shipped to the customer in aheavy-duty carton box; the model itself is encased in a secure woodframe which will require some disassembly.
