Des Moines was the lead ship of the last and largest U.S. heavy cruisers, commissioned in 1948 with nine fully automatic 8-inch guns.
She served mostly as a Sixth Fleet flagship in the Mediterranean until 1961, and was scrapped in 2006.

Buy this kit along with qualifying components and you get $5 off your ship kit for each qualifying component, up to $35. Add them to your cart to see the discount!
Des Moines runs two shafts, so most builds use two drive ESCs, a pump ESC and a regulator, which takes $20 off the kit. Each button opens that component in the store.
Gun boards, solenoids, tanks and pumps are not part of the combo.
