USS Oliver Hazard Perry (FFG-7) was an American missile frigate from the Cold War period. The keel for this unit was laid in 1975, and the launch took place in September 1976. At the time of launching, the total length of the ship was 136 meters and a width of 134 meters. Full displacement reached approx. 4,100 tons, and the maximum speed was approx. 29-30 knots. The armament consisted of a single Mk.13 rocket launcher, one 76mm OTO Melara gun, a single 20mm Vulcan Phalanx set, and two 324mm triple torpedo tubes. The ship could use two Kama SH-2 Seasprite helicopters. The USS Oliver Hazard Perry was the leading unit of the class of frigates of the same name, which totaled 69 ships. Units of this type were built for offshore and oceanic operations, as frigates intended primarily for fighting enemy submarines (ZOP). On the other hand, the possibilities of destroying air and surface targets were limited. The USS Oliver Hazard Perry (FFG-7) was built at Bath Iron Works in Bath, Maine. The US Navy was one of the first to undergo a series of very intensive at sea pre-entry tests, combined with the detonation of explosives near the ship. In 1994, the frigate took part in a BALTOPS exercise. Three years later she was withdrawn from active service. In 2005, the USS Oliver Hazard Perry (FFG-7) frigate was scrapped. Academy's excellent kit of the U.S. Navy's guided missile frigate USS Oliver Hazard Perry features a full hull formed by left and right halves, the option to make it a waterline model (cutting will be required), finely molded masts and radars, two SH-60 anti-submarine helicopters, and decals. This is an injection-plastic ship model kit.

Admiral Graf Spee was a German heavy cruiser, also known as a pocket battleship, the keel of which was laid in 1931 and launched in June 1934. The battleship entered the rope service in the German Navy (German Kriegsmarine) in January 1936. The ship was 186 m long, 21.6 m wide, and had a full displacement of 16,200 tons. The maximum speed of Admiral Graf Spee was around 28-29 knots. The main armament was 6 280 mm guns in two triple turrets, and the secondary armament included: 8 150 mm guns or 6 105 mm guns. Admiral Graf Spee was one of three Deutschland class ships launched in the 1930s. The ships of this type were theoretically built in accordance with the provisions of the Versailles Treaty of 1919, which imposed the maximum displacement on German ships, but in fact their full displacement clearly exceeded these limits. Deutschland-type units were built in such a way as to have an overwhelming advantage in the artillery battle with any British or French heavy cruiser. The combat career of Admiral Graf Spee began during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). However, his participation in World War II was very short - on August 21, 1939, he sailed to the South Atlantic, and at the end of September that year he was ordered to attack every Allied merchant ship. From September 30 to December 7, 1939, he sank 9 British merchant ships. On December 13, 1939, it was detected at the mouth of the La Plata River by Allied ships (the so-called G squadron). There he fought a short battle with the Allied forces, and then was blocked by them in port. As a result, it was self-sunk by the crew on December 17, 1939. Academy's kit of the German pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee is here! This finely detailed kit can be built as either a full-hull or waterline model (cutting of the hull along a scribed line will be required to build the waterline version). Separately molded plastic guard rails are included. Main guns feature open muzzles. Includes display stand with ornate name plate. A great large-scale kit a fantastic small-scale price! This is an injection-plastic ship model kit.

HMS Warspite was a British battleship laid down in 1912, launched in November 1913, and commissioned in the Royal Navy in March 1915. The total length of the ship was 195 m, width 27.6 m, and full displacement - 33,400 tons. The maximum speed of battleship Warspite was around 25 knots. The main armament at the time of the launch was eight 381 mm guns in four twin turrets. The secondary armament consists of 12 152mm guns, 2 76mm guns, 4 47mm pom-poms, and 4 533mm torpedo tubes. HMS Warspite was one of five Queen Elizabeth-class battleships. Battleships of this type were built just before the outbreak of World War I, as a British response to the rapid naval armament of the Second German Reich. They are often referred to as super-dreadnoughts - for the first time in the history of the navy, 381 mm artillery with 42-caliber barrels was used on them, and for the first time battleships reached a speed of about 25 knots. Many of the solutions used on this type were reflected in later British battleships. All ships of the Queen Elizabeth class also underwent significant modifications in the interwar period: first of all, they received new engine rooms, better and more efficient boilers, their armor was thickened, the profile of superstructures was changed and the anti-aircraft artillery was significantly expanded. Thanks to these upgrades, these ships were not inferior to other German or Italian battleships, as well as many Japanese battleships - with the exception of the Yamato class. The HMS Warspite battleship was built at the Dockyard shipyard in Devonport. From the moment he entered service, he was part of the Grand Fleet and, as part of it, took part in the Battle of Jutland in 1916, in which he did not suffer any serious damage. For the rest of World War I, he did not enter into any serious combat contact with German ships. However, he took part in the internment of German units in Scapa Flow. In the interwar period, it served both in the Atlantic Ocean and in the Mediterranean Sea. His glorious and rich combat route during World War II began with the struggle at Narvik in April 1940, contributing significantly to the Allied success in the so-called II Naval Battle of Narvik on April 13, 1940. Shortly thereafter, he was transferred to the Mediterranean Sea where he took part in the Battle of Cape Matapan (March 1941). In the second half of 1941, he was sent to the USA for modernization, which lasted until the end of that year. In early 1942, it found its way to the Indian Ocean, but later returned to the Mediterranean Sea - shortly before the invasion of Sicily in July 1943. In September of that year, it supported the Allied landing at Salerno, where it suffered severe damage. After the renovation, it supported the Allied forces landing in Normandy in June 1944 with their artillery fire. The last time he took part in the action was November 1944. After the war, in July 1946, it was scrapped. Academy's detailed kit of the British battleship HMS Warspite as it appeared in 1943. Includes photo-etched metal detail parts and a display stand. This is an injection-plastic ship model kit.

The USS Indianapolis (CA-35) was an American heavy cruiser the keel of which was laid in 1930, launched in November 1931, and commissioned by the US Navy in 1932. The total length of the ship was 186 m, width 20.1 m, and standard displacement - at the time of launching - 10,100 tons. The maximum speed was up to 32.7 knots. The main armament at the time of the launch was 9 203 mm guns in three turrets of three guns each, and the secondary armament was mainly 8 127 mm guns. USS Indianapolis (CA-35) was one of two Portland-class heavy cruisers. Units of this type were originally ordered as Northampton type, but their design was changed during construction. The changes concerned the reinforcement of secondary weapons and the improvement of armor. The torpedo armament was also abandoned. Generally, however, they were successful units, with a combat value similar to the Northampton and New Orleans cruisers. USS Indianapolis was built at New York Shipbuilding in Camden, NJ. At the outbreak of World War II, the unit was not stationed at Pearl Harbor, and thus avoided any damage. In February and March 1942, it covered the USS Lexington aircraft carrier as part of Task Force 11. In the same year and at the beginning of 1943, the unit served in the North Pacific and took an active part in the fighting in the Aleutian region. In November 1943, she supported the US Marines operations in Tarawa and Makin. In 1944, the cruiser supported American landing operations in the Caroline Archipelago and took part in the Battle of the Philippine Sea. In the course of operations in the Pacific, the cruiser often acted as the flagship of the V Fleet commanded by Adm. Raymond Spruance. In July 1945, the USS Indianapolis carried nuclear payloads for Little Boy and Fat Man bombs from the US west coast to Tinian Island as part of a top secret mission. The USS Indianapolis was sunk on its way back by the Japanese submarine I-58 on July 30, 1945. Of the 1,195 crew, only 316 sailors were rescued. A detailed kit of the fateful US Navy cruiser Indianapolis can be built as a full-hull or waterline model. This is an injection-plastic ship model kit.

Bismarck was a German battleship, the keel of which was laid in 1936 and launched in February 1939. The battleship entered the rope service in the German Navy (German Kriegsmarine) in August 1940. The ship was 251 meters long, 36 meters wide, and had a full displacement of 53,000 tons. Bismarck's top speed was around 29-30 knots. The main armament was 8 380 mm guns in four twin turrets, and the secondary armament included: 12 150 mm guns or 16 105 mm guns. The Bismarck was the first ship of the type with the same name - the Bismarck. It was ordered to replace in line the old battleship Hannover, completely obsolete in the 1930s. At the time of launch, Bismarck was the largest German ship and the largest European battleship. It had good armor, and its main or secondary armament was inferior to its counterparts on British ships. He made his maiden voyage in September 1940, when he was ferry to Gdynia, which was to be his home port. Bismarck's combat trail during World War II was very short. Bismarck set out on its first combat voyage on May 19, 1941 - it was supposed to perform cruising operations in the Atlantic and attack primarily Allied convoys. In carrying out this plan, Bismarck, with the accompanying heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, was already crossing the Danish Strait a few days later. On May 24, a battle took place in this strait between the German team and British ships, as a result of which the battlecruiser HMS Hood was sunk and Bismarck itself was badly damaged. After this battle, significant Royal Navy forces - including the Polish destroyer ORP Piorun - were directed against Bismarck, which the German ship tracked down and sent to the bottom on May 27, 1941. It is worth noting that there is a probable hypothesis assuming that the battleship Bismarck was self-sunk by the crew in connection with the damage sustained in combat on May 27, which made it impossible to return to the base on its own. This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

The clippers, especially those built in the second half of the nineteenth century, were perhaps the most beautiful ships ever built and represented the pinnacle of maritime engineering in the "golden age of sails". The best known of them is undoubtedly "Cutty Sark". This sailing ship was built in 1869 at the special request of the famous Scottish shipowner, Captain John Willis at the Clyde shipyard. The assumption of the project was to build a ship capable of defeating the then fastest clipper "Thermopylae", launched just a year earlier. To achieve the intended goal, the latest technologies and the highest quality materials were used. Paradoxically, it was the costs of materials and highly skilled labor that caused the original contractor to go bankrupt and the construction had to be completed by another, neighboring shipyard. When the operation was finally successfully completed, the fastest ship of that time was obtained, which, thanks to the enormous sail area, achieved a speed of over 17 knots. Of course, such an exaggerated performance was not only intended to serve propaganda purposes, but also to be used in practice. Cutty Sark's job was to transport tea from China to Great Britain. Time played a big role here because the faster the fresh harvest was delivered to the London market, the more they got the price. Each year, the journey from China was a real race and at the same time a torment for the crew, mercilessly urged by the captain, who, in the hope of rewarding money and prestige, was once again trying to break the speed record. The good times for clippers ended at the end of the 19th century, when they were no longer able to cope with the competition from modern steam ships. The Cutty Sark met the fate of many other tall ships. In 1895, it was sold to a Portuguese company, where it served as a tramp for many years, and then a barge with no sails. In June 1922, a retired sea wolf, Captain Dowman, bought the dilapidated ship and towed it to England. There, after many years of work, the Cutty Sark was restored to its former glory, primarily by installing new, although in accordance with the original sails, and in 1938 the Thames Nautical Training College in Greenhithe was presented as a training ship. In 1952, an association working for the Cutty Sark was established and it was on his initiative that five years later the legendary sailing ship finally ended its colorful career and permanently anchored at the Greenwich quay. Technical data: Displacement: 2,100 t, length: 85.1 m, width: 10.9 m, draft: 6 m, speed: up to 17.5 knots, crew: 28-35 people. This model kit from Academy is a must-have for any enthusiast of militaria. The 1:350 scale clipper ship Cutty Sark is a stunning addition to any collection. The kit includes all the necessary pieces to construct the ship and is still in its original packaging, never opened. The attention to detail in this model is impressive, with intricate designs and high-quality materials that will make it a lasting piece. Whether you're a collector or simply enjoy building models, this kit is sure to impress. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own this beautiful piece of history.

The Portland class cruisers were originally intended to be little more than an Improved Northampton class. As a follow-on class to the underweight Northhamptons, originally 5 were intended, but only 2 were completed as Portlands. The other three hulls were allocated into the following New Orleans class. The Portlands had additional armor over the machinery spaces and double the secondary battery of the Northampton design, while the torpedo tubes and bulbous bow were deleted. The torpedo tubes no longer fitting into USN cruiser doctrine, and it was believed the bulbous bow would cause pounding and subsequent damage to the frames. The USS Indianapolis CA-35 was commissioned in November of 1932. The Indianapolis worked up and trained heavily in both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans in the years preceding World War Two. She is perhaps best known for 2 events in her life; she carrying the parts for the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Little Boy, to Tinian Island in July of 1945. She is perhaps better know for her loss 2 weeks later, on 30 July 45, which led to the single largest loss of life at sea in the history of the United States Navy. On 19 August 2017, a search team financed by Paul Allen located the wreckage of the sunken cruiser in the Philippine Sea lying at a depth of approximately 18,000 ft (5,500 m). On December 20, 2018, the crew of the Indianapolis was collectively awarded a Congressional Gold Medal.

Charles W. Morgan is an American sailing whaling vessel that was launched in 1841 and performed its functions until 1920. It is worth adding, however, that the ship made its last voyage in November 1941! At the time of launching, the unit was approx. 34 m long, approx. 8.4 m wide and with a draft of approx. 4.2 m. The displacement reached approx. 350 tons. Charles W. Morgan was designed and built at the Jetrho ana Zacaharian Hillman shipyard in the city New Bedford, Massachusetts. It is worth adding that the city was famous in the nineteenth century for its whaling traditions and was a kind of "capital" of American whaling at that time. It is therefore not surprising that this is where, first of all, specialized shipyards for the manufacture of cetacean vessels were established. Ship Charles W. Morgan has made 37 voyages in the course of his long career. It was converted into a museum ship in the 1940s and is now the only surviving 19th century American whaling ship. In 1966, the ship was renamed National Historic Landmark. This high quality plastic kit is a to scale model that will require assembly and may require additional tools, sold separately.

USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69) is a modern American nuclear powered aircraft carrier. The keel for this unit was laid in 1970, the launch took place in October 1975, and commissioning to the US Navy took place in 1977. The total length of the ship is 332.8 meters, the overall width is 76.8 meters, and the full displacement is about 92,000 tons. The maximum speed does not exceed 32-33 knots. The on-board armament currently includes: two Sea Sparrow missile launchers, two RIM-116 launchers and three 20 mm Vulcan Phalanx CIWS sets. The aircraft carrier can take on board up to 90 aircraft of such types as, for example: F / A-18 Super Hornet, EA-18 Growler, E-2A Hawkeye or Sikorsky MH / SH-60. USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69) is one of the Nimitz-class aircraft carriers. The ships of this type - until the introduction of the Gerald Ford class units - were the largest ships in history. They were also the first nuclear-powered carrier class in the history of the US Navy. From the outset, they were planned as the backbone of the US Navy strike force, and were expected to work closely with other shielding ships, such as destroyers, frigates, and submarines. They are almost a symbol of the dominance of the US Navy in the seas and world assessments. One of the aircraft carriers of this class is the USS Eisenhower (CVN-69), which was built at Newport News Shipbuilding in Newport News, Virginia. The ship did not manage to take part in the Vietnam War (1964 / 1965-1975), and did not take part in the unsuccessful Orli Szpon operations of 1980, even though she was at the Indian Assessment at the time. In 1982, the unit operated off the shores of Lebanon in connection with the ongoing civil war in that country. Two years later, the ship took part in the celebrations to mark the 40th anniversary of the Allied landing in Normandy. USS Eisenhower insured American activities during the First Gulf War in 1990-1991. The aircraft carrier remains in active service, but it is expected to be withdrawn from the line around 2030. This model of the world's largest atomic aircraft carrier features a highly detailed mast and superstructure. 1:800 Scale, 34 deck aircraft and vehicles including: F-4J, LTV A-7B, EA-6B, A-6A, SH-3, E-2, F-14, RA5 Features 178 plastic pieces attached to sprues and molded in grey..

USS Nimitz (CVN-68) is a US nuclear powered aircraft carrier. The keel for this unit was laid in 1968, the launch took place in May 1972, and the commissioning to the US Navy took place in 1975. The total length of the ship is 332.8 meters, the overall width is 76.8 meters, and the full displacement is about 92,000 tons. The maximum speed does not exceed 32-33 knots. The on-board armament currently includes: two Sea Sparrow missile launchers, two RIM-116 launchers and two 20 mm Vulcan Phalanx CIWS sets. The aircraft carrier can take on board up to 90 aircraft of such types as, for example: F / A-18 Super Hornet, EA-18 Growler, E-2A Hawkeye or Sikorsky MH / SH-60. USS Nimitz (CVN-68) is the lead ship of the aircraft carrier class of the same name. The ships of this type - until the introduction of the Gerald Ford class units - were the largest ships in history. They were also the first class of nuclear-powered carriers in the history of the US Navy. From the outset, they were planned as the backbone of the US Navy strike force, and were expected to work closely with other shielding ships, such as destroyers, frigates, and submarines. They are almost a symbol of the dominance of the US Navy in the seas and world assessments. The leading vessel of this class is the USS Nimitz (CVN-68), which was built at the Newport News Shipbuilding in Newport News, Virginia. The ship did not manage to take part in the Vietnam War (1964 / 1965-1975), and the first major operation in which she took part was the unsuccessful operation Orli Szpon in 1980. A year later (1981), two F-14 Tomcats took off from the aircraft carrier, which shot down two Libyan Su-22s during a skirmish over the Gulf of Great Sirte. In 1985, the aircraft carrier operated in the Lebanon region. USS Nimitz also took an active part in the First Gulf War (1990-1991) and the Second Gulf War in 2003. USS Nimitz remains in active service, but it is expected to be withdrawn from the line around 2022. This is an injection-plastic ship model kit.

The RMS Titanic is a British ocean liner built for the White Star Line shipping line. The launch took place on May 30, 1911 at the Harland and Wolff shipyard. Hailed as a marvel of marine engineering, the Titanic was considered unsinkable. This legend turned out to be untrue during its maiden voyage, when the liner hit an iceberg in the North Atlantic and sank along with about 1,500 people on the night of April 14-15, 1912. It was one of the most spectacular sea disasters of the 20th century. Technical data: displacement (full): 46300t, length: 269m, width: 29.41m, draft: 10.5m, maximum speed: 24w, crew: 892 people and 1324 passengers. Academy's detailed full-hull kit of the Titanic in 1/400 scale will measure 67cm long when assembled. Includes display stand with nameplate. Selected by "Modell Fan" as "Model of the Year 1998."  This release features "multicolored parts," so you can get a nice looking model without painting.

The USS Enterprise (CV-6) was an American aircraft carrier, the keel of which was laid in 1934, launched in October 1936, and commissioned with the US Navy in May 1938. The ship was 252 m long, 33.4 m wide, and her full displacement at the time of launching was 25,500 tons. The maximum speed of the USS Enterprise was around 32-33 knots, and its main armament consisted of 90 on-board planes. The USS Enterprise was the second Yorktown-class aircraft carrier. The experience gained during the operation of Lexington-type vessels was used in the construction of this type of ship. First of all, it was decided to build relatively large aircraft carriers, with the greatest emphasis on the number of planes taken and the maximum speed, at the expense of armor. So they were going in the same direction as the Japanese designers, and in the opposite direction to the British Royal Navy. It is worth adding that the construction of the aircraft carrier popularly known as "Big E" was part of the program of rebuilding the American economy after the Great Depression of 1929, launched by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. During its long and well-deserved service, the USS Enterprise was modernized several times: in 1940 it received an air surveillance radar (type CXAM-1), and later in 1942 it received a new SC-2 radar. In the course of the fighting in the Pacific, the anti-aircraft weapons were also changed, which in October 1943 had 40 40 mm cannons and 50 20 mm cannons. At the outbreak of World War II in the Pacific, the USS Enterprise was near Pearl Harbor and, shortly after the Japanese attack, took part in a fruitless search for its attackers. In April 1942, the carrier covered the famous Doolittle Raid in Tokyo. Following this operation, he played one of the most important roles in the Battle of Midway in June 1942. Later in 1942, the USS Enterprise was intensively involved in naval operations in the Guadalcanal area, for example in the Battle of Santa Cruz Island. In November 1943 he covered the American landings on Tarawa and Makin. In early 1944 he took part in the fighting in the Marshall Islands area, and in June of that year he took part in the Battle of the Philippine Sea. In 1945, it supported the American operations on Iwo-Jima and Okinawa, being damaged in their course. It was taken off the line and scrapped in 1960. The USS Enterprise was one of the most distinguished and decorated ships of the US Navy during World War II.
