These were built by Mitsubishi in the 60s, and 70s. They had some serious weapons, 4 torpedo tubes and a 40mm Bofors cannon on each end. Before I left Okinawa I drove through Naha and some of them were tied up at dock near the highway.

According to the story, PT-15 and another boat were sent to investigate a unidentified vessel that had entered their waters. It turned out to be a North Korean Gunboat. It got ugly when the intruder fired on the J.M.S.D.F. boats. She was rapidly sunk by PT-15

The quality of the kit was good and I found a P.E. set for it from Eduard I think it was.
