Designed for long-range Pacific operations, the Fletchers combined speed, heavy torpedo armament, and formidable dual-purpose 5-inch guns into a balanced and remarkably durable fighting ship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStevens saw extensive action in the Pacific Theater, screening carrier task forces, escorting convoys, and providing naval gunfire support during amphibious assaults from the Solomons through the Philippines. Like her sisters, she operated in the demanding environment of fast carrier warfare, where radar-directed gunnery, anti-aircraft defense, and aggressive torpedo tactics defined destroyer combat. The Fletcher class became the backbone of U.S. surface operations, earning a reputation for toughness and adaptability that carried many of them into postwar service around the globe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 573.8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeam: 60.5mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal Parts: 490+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Parts: anchor chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhoto Etched Parts: 2 pcs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal Sprues: 13 sprues, deck and hull\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-piece hull made from two-directional slide molds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeck pattern finely rendered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStand and nameplate included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Trumpeter Scale Models","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53212790128853,"sku":"TRP3722","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/trumpeter-scale-models-3722-1-200-uss-stevens-dd-479-fletcher-class-destroyer-model-kit.jpg?v=1771348021","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterosehobbies.com\/products\/trumpeter-scale-models-3722-1-200-uss-stevens-dd-479-fletcher-class-destroyer-model-kit","provider":"White Rose Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
