Bismarck Battleship

Kit by Amati

Bismarck was a German battleship launched at Hamburg in 1939 and sunk by the Royal Navy in the North Atlantic in May 1941.

Amati's 1:200 kit has a wooden hull of laser-cut plywood frames with double planking and an engraved wooden deck. It includes more than 2,000 photo-etched parts, brass and steel gun barrels and plastic superstructure parts.
