Historical Background: The Silent Sentinel of Pearl Harbor

Launched in 1915, the USS Arizona was a “super-dreadnought” that served as a symbol of American naval might. While she spent much of her early career in the Atlantic and Mediterranean, her most significant chapter began when she was transferred to the Pacific Fleet in 1940.

On the morning of December 7, 1941, during the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, the Arizona was struck by a series of armor-piercing bombs. A catastrophic explosion in her forward magazine caused the ship to sink rapidly, resulting in the loss of 1,177 crew members. Today, she remains at the bottom of the harbor as a powerful memorial, and this COBI model serves as a tangible way to honor that legacy and study the engineering of a bygone era.
