HMS Scylla was a Dido-class cruiser of the Royal Navy. She was built by Scotts Shipbuilding and Engineering Company (Greenock, Scotland), with the keel being laid down on 19 April 1939. She was launched on 24 July 1940, and commissioned 12 June 1942. One of two sisters (the other was, appropriately, Charybdis, see Scylla and Charybdis), Scylla was completed with four twin QF 4.5 in Mk.III in UD MK III mountings because of a shortage of the intended QF 5.25 inch gun mountings. The forward superstructure was considerably modified to accommodate these and also to increase crew spaces. Known as the 'toothless terrors', they proved to be very good anti-aircraft ships, often leading to comparisons with their sisters armed with the heavier QF 5.25 in (133 mm) guns. Features The kit contains over 520 parts The hull made from two-directional slide molds Deck wood pattern finely rendered Contains display stand Photo etched parts included Model Brief: Length: 445.7mm   Beam: 46.1mm    Total Parts:  520+ Metal Parts: anchor chain Photo Etched Parts:  8 pcs Total Sprues: 12 sprues , hull and decks

USS Missouri (BB-63) was an American battleship laid down in 1941, launched in January 1944, and commissioned in the US Navy in June 1944. The length of the ship was 270.4 m, width 33 m, and her full displacement - at the time of launching - 58,400 tons. The top speed of the USS Missouri battleship was up to 33 knots. The main armament at the time of the launch was 9 406 mm guns in three turrets of three guns each, and the secondary armament was mainly 20 127 mm guns. The USS Missouri was the third of the six Iowa-class battleships ordered. As it turned out, with the Montana-class battleship building program failing, the Iowa-class battleships were the last to be launched for the US Navy. As they were built without any financial or displacement limits, they also turned out to be the most technologically advanced American battleships in World War II. From the outset, they were built as key carrier ships for aircraft carriers and placed great emphasis on high top speed, which made Iowa-class battleships much faster than any other American battleships. They also had carefully crafted armor and new 406 mm Mk. VII with a greater range of the effective shot. USS Missouri (BB-63) began its participation in World War II in December 1944, by ferrying from Atlantic ports to Hawaii. As early as January 1945, he supported the US Marines on Iwo-Jima with his artillery. In March this year, the USS Missouri acted as a shield ship for a team of aircraft carriers that attacked targets on the Japanese Islands with their on-board planes. In April, he supported activities in the Okinawa region. The battleship completed its operations in World War II in a very glorious and representative manner - it was on board that the representatives of Japan signed the act of unconditional surrender of their country on September 2, 1945. The ship also took an active part in the Korean War (1950-1953). In 1956, however, he was placed in the reserve. In the 1980s, he returned to line service, having previously undergone a thorough modernization. It involved the installation of modern electronics and fire control systems, as well as the installation of Tomahawk and Harpoon rocket launchers and Phalanx anti-aircraft systems. The battleship was also adapted to the homing of on-board helicopters. The ship modernized in this way took an active part in the protection of tankers in the Persian Gulf region in 1987, in the final phase of the Iran-Iraq war. He returned to these waters in 1990 to take an active part in Operation Desert Storm (1990-1991) firing rockets and on-board artillery at targets in Iraq. Finally, in 1992, the ship was decommissioned. At present, it serves as a museum ship in Hawaii. This full-hull model of the U.S. Navy Iowa-class battleship Missouri features a precisely molded upper structure, various weapons such as rotatable 16inch triple main gun and turret, and a reconnaissance aircraft on board, with a modest number of parts to simplify assembly. Includes decals, too; will be about 67cm long when completed. This is an injection-plastic ship model kit. Features Painting and assembly required 9 sprues Molded in high-quality grey plastic Includes onboard cranes and aircraft One-piece hull and two-piece deck Includes display stand and nameplate Fully detailed deck with accurate weaponry Illustrated instructions and paint guide

USS Yorktown (CV-5) was an American aircraft carrier laid down in 1934, launched in April 1936, and commissioned with the US Navy in September 1937. The ship was 246.7 meters long, 33.4 meters wide, and had a full displacement of 25,500 tons. The top speed of the USS Yorktown aircraft carrier was around 32-33 knots, and its main armament consisted of 85 on-board planes. USS Yorktown was the first class aircraft carrier to bear the same name. 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 USS Yorktown was in line with the program of rebuilding the American economy after the Great Depression of 1929, launched by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. At the time of joining the USS Navy, the USS Yorktown belonged to the Atlantic Fleet, but often cooperated with ships belonging to the Pacific Fleet. Ultimately, almost immediately after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor (December 1941), it was transferred to the Pacific Ocean, and from January 1942 it belonged to Task Force 17. In February 1942, USS Yorktown took part in air attacks against Japanese forces in Gilbert and Marshall Islands, and then operated in the Coral Sea. In May 1942, he took part in the Battle of the Coral Sea, where it was badly damaged, but thanks to a lightning-fast repair made at Pearl Harbor, he was able to take part in the struggle at Midway in June 1942. In the course of this battle - as a result of an attack by Japanese on-board planes and a torpedo attack by a Japanese submarine - it sank on June 7, 1942. Academy's newest model kit of the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier CV-5 USS Yorktown is precisely molded to represent all her superstructures and flight decks! The kit can be assembled as a full-hull or waterline version; carrier-based aircraft (SBD, TBD, F4F) are included too.  This is an injection-plastic ship model kit. Features Size: 35.3cm long, 5cm wide when completed

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. The packaging of the Academy 1:700 Scale R.M.S.

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.

USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) was an American classic-propelled aircraft carrier. The keel for this unit was laid in 1956, the launch took place in May 1960, and the commissioning to the US Navy took place in 1961. The total length of the ship was 323 meters, the overall width was 86 meters, and her displacement was about 84,000 tons. The maximum speed did not exceed 33 knots. The on-board armament initially consisted of Terrier rocket launchers (later replaced by Sea Sparrow launchers, and later - by RIM-116 launchers) and up to 4 sets of Vulcan Phalanx CIWS cal. 20 mm. The aircraft carrier could take up to 85-90 aircraft on board. The USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) was the lead ship of the carrier class of the same name - Kitty Hawk. The ships of this type were essentially a modernized version of the Forrestal ships. The main changes concerned the enlargement of ships, changes to the layout of the airlifts and the flight deck. The USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) was built at New York Shipbuilding. Shortly after entering service, the carrier was directed to the Pacific and assigned to the United States' 7th Fleet. In the years 1962-1964, the unit courteously visited the ports of Japan and the Philippines. Since 1965, the USS Kitty Hawk on-board aircraft attacked targets in North Vietnam during the Vietnam War. In 1980, the unit underwent modernization and extended service life under the SLEP program. Four years later (1984), there was a collision between the aircraft carrier and a Soviet Victor-class submarine. Ultimately, the USS Kitty Hawk was decommissioned in 2009. This fantastic kit includes a highly detailed superstructure and mast, finely engraved hull and deck details, deck elevators, and more. A full complement of 58 aircraft including fighters, bombers, helicopters, and E-2 Hawkeye Airborne Early Warning aircraft. Deck vehicles are also included in this kit. A comprehensive decal sheet, precise colour chart and a large display stand complete this marvellous kit. Features Highly detailed mast & superstructure Various deck aircraft & vehicles included Display stand with nameplate included Requires plastic cement and paint.

The revolutionary design of the F4U Corsair was created in 1938 in response to the request of the US Navy to design a high-speed fighter stationed on board aircraft carriers. Chance Vought took on the challenge, with the goal of fitting the most powerful of the available engines (i.e. the Pratt-Whitney Double Wasp engine) into the smallest possible airframe. The key was to place the clunky landing gear in the inverted, crooked wings that became the hallmark of the aircraft. The flight of the prototype took place on May 29, 1940, and the US Navy received its first serial Corsair on July 31, 1942. However, tests carried out by the US Navy on aircraft carriers revealed some flaws in the design, which meant that the first production series of the aircraft went to squadrons of the Marine Corps and operated from land bases. The first unit received by the F-4 was the VMF-124 at Gudalcanal. It quickly turned out that the new machine definitely surpasses all enemy machines and, in several respects, also the F-6 Hellcat. At the same time, however, it was very difficult to pilot and required great attention when landing. Interestingly, only up to 20% of Corsair missions took off from the decks of aircraft carriers, and throughout almost the entire war they remained primarily a machine of the Marine Corps. After the end of World War II, the F-4 Corsair remained in the line and took part in the Korean War (1950-1953). Technical data (version F4U-4): Maximum speed: 731 km / h, speed of climb: 19.7 m / s, maximum ceiling 12649 m, maximum range: 1115 km, armament: fixed - 6 M2 machine guns, caliber 12, 7mm and 4 20mm Browning cannons, sling - up to 1800 kg of bombs. This model kit from Academy brings us an accurate reproduction of the single-seat F4U-4 Corsair, an aircraft that was active from World War II to the Korean War! The cockpit interior and details of the landing gear are achieved with a modest number of parts; decals for four versions from the Korean War are included, including Thomas Jerome Hudner Jr., who was awarded the Medal of Honor at the Battle of Nagatsuko. This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit. Features Size: 21.1cm long, 26cm wingspan when completed Includes: Decals for 4 versions

Restricted by the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, the German Kriegsmarine exploited a loophole by designing a fleet of fast, wooden-hulled attack craft they referred to as Schnellboots. Expertly designed, these vessels were perfected over time and by the outbreak of the Second World War, they had become a devastatingly effective part of Germany’s naval strength. Powered by three diesel engines and featuring a triple rudder arrangement, Germany’s E Boats were some of the fastest warships in the world. With their low profile, high manoeuvrability and torpedo armament, if they penetrated any Allied convoy, they could destroy several vessels and make their escape before coming under return fire.
