Academy 1/350 & 1/700 Scale Ship Model Kits

Academy produces ship models in several popular scales, including highly sought-after 1/350 scale ship kits and 1/700 scale ship kits. Larger 1/350 models provide impressive display presence and plenty of room for detailed decks, gun turrets, superstructures, aircraft, lifeboats and other naval equipment.

For builders who want detailed naval models in a more compact format, 1/700 scale warship kits are an excellent choice. Their smaller footprint also makes 1/700 ships ideal for building fleets, creating naval dioramas or displaying multiple vessels from the same historical period.

Academy Battleship Model Kits

Build some of naval history's most recognizable capital ships with Academy battleship model kits. Academy's ship lineup includes subjects representing famous American, British and German warships, giving naval modelers opportunities to recreate vessels associated with some of the most important periods in twentieth-century maritime history.

Subjects such as the USS Missouri, Bismarck and HMS Warspite provide excellent projects for builders interested in battleship history, naval warfare and large-scale display models. From massive main gun turrets to intricate superstructures and deck equipment, battleships offer countless opportunities for painting, detailing and weathering.

Academy Aircraft Carrier Model Kits

Aircraft carriers combine naval and aviation modeling into one impressive project. Explore Academy aircraft carrier model kits representing historic and modern naval aviation, including famous U.S. Navy carriers such as the USS Enterprise, USS Yorktown and USS Nimitz.

Carrier models provide modelers with opportunities to detail expansive flight decks, island superstructures, deck markings, defensive weapons and miniature aircraft. They can become impressive standalone display pieces or centerpieces for larger naval collections.

WWII Warship & Naval Model Kits

World War II remains one of the most popular periods for ship modelers, and Academy offers numerous subjects connected to the era. WWII ship model kits allow builders to explore the development of battleships, aircraft carriers, cruisers and other naval vessels used by major fleets during the conflict.

These historical ship models are especially well suited to builders who enjoy researching authentic camouflage patterns, deck colors, hull markings and period-specific configurations. Careful painting and weathering can transform an Academy plastic ship kit into an impressive representation of a vessel at a particular point in its service history.

Historic Ships & Ocean Liner Model Kits

Academy's maritime subjects extend beyond military vessels. Builders interested in civilian and historic ships can also find subjects such as the RMS Titanic and other notable vessels. Ocean liner model kits provide a different modeling experience, emphasizing hull lines, deck structures, funnels, lifeboats and distinctive passenger ship details.

These models are excellent choices for maritime history enthusiasts, collectors and builders who want something different from a traditional naval warship project.

Detailing Academy Plastic Ship Models

Ship modeling offers tremendous opportunities for additional detail. Depending on the kit and your preferred level of complexity, a naval model can be enhanced through careful deck painting, hull weathering, rigging, railings, aircraft detailing and subtle washes that highlight molded features.

Browse our selection of model paints for hull colors, deck finishes, camouflage, metallic details and other supplies needed to finish your Academy ship project.

Choosing an Academy Ship Model Scale

The right scale depends on the vessel, available display space and the level of detail you want from your build. 1/350 scale ship models provide substantial size and excellent opportunities for detailed finishing, while 1/700 scale ships offer a balance of detail and compact display size. Academy also produces maritime subjects in additional scales, giving builders even more options when choosing a project.

Always check the individual product listing for the exact scale, dimensions and kit contents when selecting your next Academy ship model.
