's first experience with 1:4800 scale naval models.
We've released another boat model, this time a Russian messenger river gunboat of the Bayonet type laid down in 1909. The Bayonet types were a series of ten armored messenger vessels, designed and built in the Putilov Factory specifically for action in the Amur River basin, coming into operation in the autumn of 1910. One of the main requirements for the project was the possibility of carrying the ships by rail.
Used by the Red Navy, they saw action against the Japanese, and a few were captured by the Finns.
- Armament one 76mm Mountain gun, two Maxim machineguns
- The model is cast in resin with white-metal fittings
- Length 40cm, width 57mm, height 18cm approximately
