Don't pay attention to the naysay review below: this is a great model kit! It's difficult and will take considerable time and effort to assemble. Like any scale model kit, there are flaws (most notably the lack of a hangar deck), but there are plenty of aftermarket products designed specifically for this kit (such as Gold Medal Model's decals and photoetches, as well as Tamiya's own 1/350 aircraft kits) and tons of reference materials to let the builder customize the kit to configurations other than the default 1980's refit. Don't underestimate the size of the finished product either; you'll need to clear off three and a half feet of shelf space for display. It's not cheap either, but you get what you pay for; and any experienced knows that the hobby is not a cheap one, especially if you want ultra-detailing.

The instructions in English were at the bottom of the box, under the hull.

The kit is excellent, makes a great companion to the 1/350 Nimitz.

This is a great kit for multiple reasons. First of, its a good buy, but it is expensive. If you are like me, you want the best looking model that your skills can turn out. This kit by itself is wonderful, and looking at the 600 something parts you may start to wonder if you should just give it back for fear that you will never be able to finish it. If you were on a no scratch building no photo etch no detail cruise control you could probably finish this in around two weeks, as long as you have experience in this field. But, if you were going to detail, this kit will take you 2 months to 10 years (the time that I spent on it and the time of a very detailed build) If you buy this beware, you need to scratch build a lot of details, and to get a super detailed Enterprise you will have to spend an extra 150 dollars in photo etch and decals to really make this kit come to life. So, this is a good buy and and a great mantlepiece.
