USS Ranger (CV-61) Carrier Model Ship

The first aircraft carrier in the world to be lain down as an angled-deck carrier is now available for the first time as a precisely handcrafted 1/700 scale wood model! Depicting the Forrestal-class supercarrier as she appeared in early 1990, after "Ranger's Last Ride", this 18-inch long model is fully carved by hand from mahogany wood and superdetailed with handcast resin and handmade metal parts. Ranger comes ready to display on an elegant, handmade, furniture-finish 20-inch display base using hand-turned brass pedestals. A brass name plate completes the display. Overall the quality of this model of one of America's famous aircraft carriers would command a $800 retail value, but it is now available at our extremely low factory price.

This is not a mass-produced model. Each museum-quality replica is handcrafted by master modelers and will make a perfect gift or memento for the sailor, ship or military enthusiast. As such it is shipped to the customer in a heavy-duty carton box; the model itself is encased in a secure wood frame which will require some disassembly.
