A prop of the HIJMS Fubuki and one of her sisters the Shinonome, as they appear in World of Warships.

So this was easier than I expected, not too much stuff to rig thankfully.

THIS IS NOT A DRIVEABLE VEHICLE, AND I WILL NEVER MAKE IT ONE, SO PLEASE, DO NOT BOTHER ASKING.

Fully rigged, use a model tool to tamper with moving parts.

HIJMS Shinonome (1942)

HIJMS Fubuki (1942)

Considered the first modern destroyers, the Fubuki-class destroyers were constructed in the 1920s as part of an initiative to modernize the Imperial Japanese Navy. The resulting ships boasted high speeds, powerful armament and large size made them akin to light cruisers and the most powerful destroyers in the world, remaining formidable even until the end of the Second World War.
Fubuki was the lead ship of the class and participated in many early war battles, including the Battle of Malaya, the Battle of Sunda Strait, the Solomon Islands Campaign, the Battle of Midway and the Tokyo Express in the Battle of Guadalcanal before meeting her end during the Battle of Cape Esperance, sunk from gunfire. 109 members of her crew survived and were rescued by US ships.
