The South Dakota class generally resembled the North Carolina class but was shorter, with one funnel instead of two. The armor and underwater protection scheme was entirely new. The design was found to be rather cramped, especially for antiaircraft guns in the reduced-length superstructure. The 5″ guns were at the 01 and 02 levels rather than at the main deck and 01 level as they had been in the North Carolina class of ships. Still, they were good and effective ships that pulled their weight during WWII. However, as with other battleships of their era, they were rapidly overtaken by changes in naval warfare.

Trumpeter often recommends using Tamiya X and XF paints – click here to purchase!
