Product Description ■ This is a colorless resin-cast kit before assembly.
The battleship Conte di Kabul was completed by the Royal Italian Navy during World War I.
When it was commissioned in 1915, it had a total length of 176.9 meters and a displacement of 25086 tons (reserved).
During the modernization renovation from 1933 to 1937, the ship's bow was extended by about 10 meters to a total length of 186.39 meters. The engine was changed from 20 water tubes / 3 turbines to 8 fired water tubes / 2 geared turbines. Although the displacement increased to 29100 tons (reserved), the maximum speed increased from 21.5 knots to 28 knots.
After the renovation, the ship was armed with two 32cm3 multiple cannons + two 32 cm multiple cannons, six 12 cm multiple launchers, six 100 mm multiple high-angle guns, four 37 mm multiple machine-guns, and six 13.2 mm multiple machine-guns.
In the early World War II, the ship was fired together with the British Fleet. In 1940, the ship was destroyed and grounded due to the British Fleet's Tarantair attack, and the ship was salvaged the following year.
The ship was scheduled to be repaired at the Port of Trieste, but after the Kingdom of Italy surrendered in 1943, it was seized by the German Army after the armistice.
After the Kingdom of Italy surrendered in 1945, it was abandoned after it capsized and sank by U.S. aircraft, and it was dismantled in 1948 after World War II.
Both full hull and offshore models will be released simultaneously.
Each kit comes with resin parts, 3D printer parts, metal gun parts (two types), etching parts, and Italian Naval Flag decals.
When completed, the total length will be approximately 266 mm.
