Built at the Sasebo shipyard, it entered service in 1922. Its purpose was fast reconnaissance and support operations for the main naval forces. In the 1930s, the ship underwent modernization, becoming a torpedo cruiser—one of the most heavily torpedo-armed ships in the world, outfitted with as many as 40 610 mm torpedo launchers. During World War II, it participated in convoy duties, supporting landings, and operations in the waters of the South Pacific. Its intense service ended in 1944 after being sunk by an American submarine.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      The model is made from high-grade plastic, ensuring durability and precise detailing. The kit includes numerous sprues with very well-reproduced elements of the deck, superstructures, and armaments. The manufacturer has also paid special attention to the realistic representation of the characteristic torpedo launchers and the cruiser’s slim silhouette. The model is designed to be built in a \"waterline\" configuration, meaning a partially submerged waterline, making it an attractive choice for maritime dioramas.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/700\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eCountry of origin: Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eHistorical period: In service from the interwar period, through World War II, until 1944\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eCategory: Plastic model kit – historical ships\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eSet contents: plastic parts, assembly instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003ePossibility to use photo-etched and resin accessories (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      We recommend the Aoshima 05133 Japanese Light Cruiser Oi 1\/700 model to intermediate and advanced modelers looking for an authentic historical ship for their collection.
