The ship was launched in July 1942 and commissioned a year later. During the war, USS Baltimore participated in operations in the Pacific, taking part in the escort of aircraft carriers and the bombardment of islands such as Saipan, Guam, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. The effectiveness of cruisers of this class and their modern anti-aircraft armament significantly contributed to the Allied successes in naval battles from 1943 to 1945. After the end of combat operations, the ship continued its service during the Cold War before being decommissioned.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/700 – ideal for collections of large fleet vessels\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of use: United States of America – US Navy\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHistorical period: World War II\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic ensuring precise reproduction of structural details\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eKit components: ship hull, superstructures, main and anti-aircraft armament, lifeboats, deck elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eGlue and paints not included – required to complete the model\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCrisp, fine panel lines and deck elements provide a realistic appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCategory: plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eDifficulty Level and Recommendations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Trumpeter 05724 USS Baltimore CA-68 1\/700 model is recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level: 3\/5), due to its small scale and the number of details requiring precise assembly and painting.
