Tamiya 1/350 U.S. Enterprise Aircraft Carrier –
Model Kit
The United States Navy Aircraft Carrier CVN-65 Enterprise, also known as the
“Big E”, is the worlds largest ship and the first nuclear powered aircraft
carrier. Webster defines the word Enterprise as meaning”Undertaking, Project,
A business organization, Initiative, etc.”, and the CVN-65 fits all of these
definitions perfectly.
The carrier Enterprise is the 8th U.S. Naval vessel to carry the name, and
the first one was launched in 1755 as a one masted sailing ship that served
during the American Revolution and its displacement was only about 1/1000 of the
current namesake. Following the end of the second conflict, the U.S. Navy had on
hand 99 aircraft carriers, with another 39 under construction, but with the
completion of hostilities construction was halted and many of the others were
mothballed. In 1947, only 20 carriers were in active service, including the
Midway. With the advent of jet aircraft and heavier gross weights of the new
planes, a large 60,000 ton class of carrier was discussed to cover these needs.
Construction was begun on CVB-58 in 1949, a 65,000 ton class carrier, but was
halted after only five days, because of a change in political thinking, wherein
emphasis was placed upon tactical long range bombers instead.

Multiple Shipments
If your order contains a mix of in stock and out of stock products, you will be presented with a choice in the Checkout to have your order sent in multiple shipments (so in stock items ship as soon as they're ready), or all items together in a single shipment (to save money).
