Catalogue Dragon 2011


There are a number of reasons why this model carrier is an accurate replica of CVL-22. Perhaps the most important or significant reason is that Dragon obtained drawings, blueprints and sketches directly from the original manufacturer of this vessel. By referring to these invaluable documents, the aircraft carrier kit has been designed as accurately as possible. An example of where this kind of inside information has paid off is in the details and pattern of the hangar deck. These drawings also allowed the design team to distinguish whether particular details belonged to the carrier's initial shakedown configuration or its war cruise configuration. In one sense, this kit comes straight from the shipyard drawing board into the hands of avid ship modelers!
