ACB - Aircraft Carrier Builders - Naval Aviation and Aircraft Carriers
Aircraft Carrier Builders (ACB) is dedicated to modelers with special interest in aircraft carriers and naval aviation from any era, any nations. The site's mission is to provide space for any kind of related materials, to develop a good knowledge base and data library for modelers.
USS Enterprise CVN-65 by Gabriel Suranyi - Carrier Builders
2007年3月18日 · The model, mostly completed in 2003, represents the USS Enterprise and Air-Wing 11 during the ships’ 1989 cruise. Top deck of the carrier is finished in rough grip surface. Over 6000 tie-downs are on the top deck and 5000 in the hangar bay.
Evolution of the Carrier: Part 10: Akagi and Kaga - Carrier Builders
More than 200 aircraft carriers were built in the 20th century and it is likely that the one carrier most modeled is Akagi. The picture that leads off this paragraph (no.35) is the illustration of the 1:144 scale model you can purchase from Soar-Art of Hong Kong: it will cost more than a few weeks allowance.

USS Nimitz CVN-68 - 1/144 Part VIII. by Dan Linton - Carrier Builders
2007年7月8日 · The next three pictures – 6,7, and 8 –show the model on its carrying rack and shows a design choice: all the aircraft, crew, and the superstructure and radar tower are glued into place.
Evolution of the Aircraft Carrier: Part 13: IJN Ryujo
Ryujo, and virtually every one of the twenty-five carriers and two battleship-carrier hybrid conversions has been modeled in plastic in 1:700 scale.
Evolution of the Aircraft Carrier: Part 8: Glorious and Courageous
Brian King produced an article ‘Modeling an Inter-War Aircraft Carrier: HMS Glorious 1936” – a 1:192 full hull model whose design and construction is highly detailed (33). I have included two pictures (no.22 and 23) of a model of HMS Glorious found on the Model Warships website (34).
Evolution of the Aircraft Carrier: Part 12: USS Ranger - Carrier …
The Floating Drydock has plans for Ranger in 1:192 scale and Taubman Plans has plans for Ranger in 1:96. As far as I could discover there are no card model plans for Ranger, nor are there any kits or plans, in any scale or medium, for CF, the projected hybrid cruiser-carrier.
The Evolution of the Aircraft Carrier: Part 7 - Carrier Builders
Between the commissioning of Béarn, and the authorizing of new carriers in 1938, the French Navy toyed with the idea of a hybrid battlecruiser-carrier, a ship with 8 12” guns and a catapult deck for eight aircraft.
Introduction to the Project - Carrier Builders
The kit model also allowed for working out the position of the elevators, superstructure, and the flight deck outlines. I chose 1:144 even though I knew there were no fittings in this scale useful for modern aircraft carriers (although creating an airwing in this scale is not difficult).
