Hasegawa 1/72 Curtiss SOC-3 Seagull (JS-057)

The Curtiss SOC Seagull was the US Navy's primary shipborne observation floatplane of the late 1930s and early Second World War, launched by catapult from battleships and cruisers to scout, spot gunfire, and rescue downed aircrew. Capable of operating on either floats or wheeled undercarriage, the biplane Seagull was a versatile and reliable fleet asset that served throughout the Pacific and Atlantic theatres. This Hasegawa 1/72 kit captures the graceful biplane lines of the SOC-3 variant, with its distinctive single central float and wing-mounted stabilising floats, offering an unusual and rewarding subject for fans of pre-war US naval aviation.
