Brought to life by Distefan 3D Print, this high-precision replica captures the definitive deck gun of the contemporary U.S. Navy. As the primary surface armament for the Arleigh Burke-class destroyers and Ticonderoga-class cruisers, this model is an essential component for collectors aiming to showcase the tactical versatility and striking power of the modern fleet.

Precision Engineering & Technical Authenticity

• Exquisite 1/100 Detail: At this large scale, the Mark 45’s sleek, low-signature geometry is captured with astounding accuracy. From the subtle access hatches and sensor ports on the turret housing to the tapering profile of the 54-caliber barrel, every feature is rendered with the architectural sharpness required for a museum-grade display. This scale allows for a tangible appreciation of the "lightweight" engineering that revolutionized naval gunnery.
• High Detail Resin Grey: Crafted in professional High Detail Resin Grey, this model provides a smooth, non-porous finish that is ideal for highlighting fine mechanical nuances. The classic grey material serves as an excellent base for inspection, ensuring that every rivet and panel line is crisp and ready for the painting process. The resin is chosen for its superior durability, ensuring your turret remains a centerpiece for years to come.
• Hollowed for Performance: To ensure easy installation and seamless integration with your ship's deck, the turret features an intelligent hollowed design. This engineering choice keeps the model lightweight without compromising its structural integrity or its "heavy metal" appearance, allowing for easy posing and secure bonding.

A Canvas for Modern Tactical Artistry

Unpainted for Total Customization: Arriving in a professional unpainted finish, the Mark 45 serves as a blank canvas for your creative vision. Whether you are modeling a "fresh from the yard" vessel or a battle-hardened veteran, the resin surface is optimized for high-quality primers.

• Historical Schemes: Apply the standard USN Haze Grey or the specialized coatings used by international operators like Japan’s JMSDF or the Spanish Navy.
• Realistic Weathering: The smooth surface allows for advanced techniques such as pin-washing the panel lines or adding subtle salt-spray streaks to achieve high levels of authenticity and realism.

Key Features & Specifications

• Accurate 1/100 Scale: Precision-scaled from original naval blueprints for perfect proportional integration with Arleigh Burke or Ticonderoga models.
• Mod 0-2 Versatility: Replicates the features of the most widely deployed variants of the Mark 45 system.
• Premium Resin Grey: Offers the best balance between intricate detail retention and material toughness.
• Hollowed Engineering: Facilitates lightweight mounting while maintaining a robust, professional feel.
