The S.S. Mayaguez was a merchant ship hijacked by the Kmer Rouge in 1975. Ford sent marines to an off shore island where they met fierce resistance. 4 helos shot down. Almost a blackhawk down story.. Do they make a model of the S.S. Mayaguez??

You may need to investigate to find out what class of merchant vessel she was. There may be plans for the ships class. A kit would be next to nill. I remember reading an article about this event in some airline magazine a few years ago. There were a lot of pictures of the ship. But I cannot remember what magazine it was in.
