Ed,

Thanks for the photo, I have seen this kit before and it looks great but it appears to represent a later version of the Kirk.  The photo below shows an open bow rail rather than the solid one on the later mod.

Iron Shipwright also makes a Knox in 1:350 as the Ainsworth

I recently saw the Navy video on the USS Kirk at the end of Vietnam and was looking for a 1/350 scale plastic kit of the ship in this class (Knox Class).  The only thing close I have seen is a 1/700 AFV club and a 1/350 WEM resin kit but both of those depict the ships in this class as they would have appeared after the war.  Any help would be much appreciated.
