REVELL HMS VICTORY - 05408 SCALA 1:225

HMS Victory is named after five ships in the history of the Royal Navy. The first was launched in 1559 and was the flagship of Sir John Hawkins' fleet, which in 1588 crushed the Spanish Grand Armada, thus putting an end to Spanish supremacy in the waters of the world. Another ship bearing the glorious name of Victory was a ship designed by Thomas Slade and launched on 7 May 1765. The armament of the new English pride consisted of 104 guns: 32-pounders on the lower deck, 24-pounders in the middle, 12-pounders on top and finally huge 64-pounders at the stern. The crew consisted of 850 sailors and officers. The combat path of HMS Victory was extremely colorful. In 1793 the ship took part in the capture of Toulon and a year later in operations in the region of Corsica. It was then, during the siege of Calvi, that Captain Horace Nelson lost his eye. In 1797, commanded by Admiral John Jervis, HMS Victory took part in the famous Battle of Cape St. Vincent, although the main role there was played by HMS Capitan, commanded by none other than ... Horace Nelson, already in the rank of commander. HMS Victory saw its day of glory on October 21, 1805 during one of the largest naval battles in history - the Battle of Trafalgar. The combined Spanish-French fleet was completely defeated thanks to the ingenious tactics of Horace Nelson: out of 33 ships, 18 were captured, 4 escaped but were found and destroyed within two weeks, the remaining badly damaged ones managed to take refuge in Cadiz. Thanks to the crushing victory of the British, Napoleon's dreams of conquering the sea were shattered. However, the victory was hard to pay for: Admiral Nelson was wounded during the battle by a musket shot and, shortly before the end of the battle, died in his cabin aft of HMS Victory. The ship herself was completely refitted after the battle and remained in service until 1812. In 1824, HMS Victory became the honorary flagship of the Portsmouth fleet and has remained so to this day. In 1922, it was decided to thoroughly refit the ship in Portsmouth docks, restoring her to her appearance from the Battle of Trafalgar, and then make her available to the public. Today, every year thousands of tourists admire one of the most famous ships to ever sail the world's oceans. WE DO NOT SHIP TO THE CANARY ISLANDS

Hasegawa HP001 Soya Antarctica Observation Ship 2nd Corps. Scala 1/250

Hasegawa HP001 Soya Antarctica Observation Ship 2nd Corps. Scale 1/250. Soya was a Japanese icebreaker, research and supply ship of World War II and post-war times. The unit was launched in February 1938. At the end of the service the ship was 83.5 m long, 13.5 m wide and had a displacement of about 4,100 tons. The maximum speed was 12-13 knots. Soya was originally built to order for the Soviet Union as a commercial ship adapted for sailing in northern waters, with floating ice. Her original name was Wołoczajewiec. However, due to political tensions on the Tokyo-Moscow line, the ship was not delivered to the customer and the ship initially became the property of one of the Japanese shipping companies, which bore the name Chiryo Maru. In 1939, however, it was confiscated by the Navy and from 1940 (under the name Soya) served as a research and ammunition transport vessel. The ship happily survived the war and in 1950 was converted into Japan's first Arctic exploration vessel. In the period 1956-1962, the ship traveled on the Japan-Antarctic route, conducting research and delivering supplies to the Japanese polar base Showa (another name: Syowa). In 1978, Soya was decommissioned and converted into a museum ship. We do not ship to the Canary Islands

Italeri 5609 Biber Midget Submarine Scale 1/35. Plastic kit, glue and colors not included. DECAL FOR 3 VERSIONS - COLOR INSTRUCTION SHEET - PHOTO-ETCHED CONTAINS 2 FIGURES The "Biber" was the best-known "pocket" submarine used during the end of the Second World War by the Kriegsmarine. The development of the Biber was extremely rapid. Design began in February 1944 and the first examples took to sea only 6 months later. Just 9 meters long, it had a range of 240 km. It could reach a maximum speed of 6.5 knots when surfacing and 5.3 knots when submerged. The Biber could be armed with two 530 mm torpedoes, mounted externally to the submarine, or with two mines. Its crew consisted of only one person. The use of the Biber, within the Kriegsmarine strategy, was very simple: to provide a concrete defense along the coasts to protect against a possible, and increasingly probable, Allied invasion. From 1944 until the end of World War II, the Kriegsmarine received and put into operation more than 300 Bibers.

ICM U-BOAT TYPE IIB (1943) GERMAN SUBMARINE – S.010 SCALA 1:144

Type II U-boats were German submarines whose construction began in 1934. Depending on the subtype, Type II units had a length of 41 m to 44 m, a width of 4.08 m to 4.92 m and an underwater displacement - from 303 tons to 364 tons. The maximum surface speed of Type II U-boats was about 13 knots and the maximum underwater speed was about 7 knots. The main armament consisted of 3 x 533 mm torpedo tubes, all in the bow, with a total of 5 torpedoes or 18 mines carried on board the ship. The secondary armament was 1 x 20 mm AA gun. This type of ships was built mainly at the Kiel and Lübeck shipyards. Type II U-boats were the first submarines built for the German Navy after 1918. In their general assumptions, they were very clearly modeled on the ship built for Finland called "Vessiko". They were consciously treated as ships that should provide the German shipbuilding industry with the appropriate qualifications for the serial production of new types of submarines with increased combat capabilities. Therefore, Type II U-boats were intended for training and coastal defense tasks. They also had many disadvantages: a very limited range, a slow descent process and a low speed under water. During World War II, they were used mainly in the Baltic and North Seas, and to a small extent - after turning the Danube - also in the Black Sea. We do not ship to the Canary Islands
