Where can I find the plastic model of and Air Craftcarrier the Uss Kearsarge Cvs 33?

This Ship was built in 1944(?) and had multiple remodelling and was decommissoned in 1969 and sold for scrape in 1970


I served aboard the "Mighty K" 1965-68 and would love to build the model, can't find it anywhere.

Reply:Kearsarge (CVS-33) was an Essex class carrier commissioned in March of 1946; and when you served , she was an ASW Carrier !!





SADLY, the only model I know of the Essex Class carriers are made by Trumpeter in 1/350, and they've only got the "short-hull" Essex Class. There are strong rumors of Trumpeter releasing a "long-hull" version soon.





I build this model updated as a Bon Homme Richard... a GREAT model.
