Its the strangest thing. Ive had a 1:250 scale paper model (card stock) of the USS Arizona on CD for several years that was given to me as a gift. I printed most of the sheets when I got it but my printer started acting up, didnt get a chance to print the rest and then I moved and never had the time to really start on it. Till this past Friday, when I started building it. Which is almost exactly a year to the day this video was posted. And for some reason I discovered this video just now. Wierd.
The model appears to be 1/96th scale. More than likely it was built from a Scaleshipyard hull. Lee, the owner, will sell you about 50% of the ship. You still have to build the superstructure and the decks.
