1/350 USS Truxtun CGN-35 (Iron Shipwrights)
Model is a Iron Shipwright/Commander's Series 1/350 USS Truxtun kit. The kit portrays the Truxtun in 1985, I decided to upgrade the kit a bit and show the Bainbridge as she was in the early 1990's during the Gulf War. There the Truxtun performed duties as the Arabian Gulf Anti-Air Warfare Commander, Force Track Coordinator, Electronic Warfare Commander and alternate Anti-Surface Warfare Commander during Operation Desert Storm. TRUXTUN also served as the Commander, United States Mine Counter-Measure Group One flagship during minesweeping operations off the coastal waters of Kuwait.
