With the COBI HMS Belfast Set, create this an accurate 1:300 model of this historic British cruiser.
The HMS Belfast was a light cruiser of the British Royal Navy from World War II. It entered service on August 5, 1939. At the end of November of the same year, as a result of damage by a German mine, she was excluded from service for three years.
From 1942 on she covered Arctic convoys. On December 26, 1943, together with the cruisers HMS Norfolk and HMS Sheffield, she repulsed the attacks of the German battleship Scharnhorst, which was trying to break through to an Allied convoy. Scharnhorst's interception contributed to its subsequent encirclement and sinking. HMS Belfast also participated in the attack on the German battleship Tirpitz.
This model of the historic ship has many movable elements, such as deck guns, rotating artillery towers, rudders and propellers. The model has been covered with high-quality prints representing equipment and camouflage. The Belfast will make a perfect gift for all lovers of history, military and marine science.
