We've added a new 28mm model and crew to our Nautical Nonsense Chandlery, not a ship, but an armored lorry, introduced in February 1915 and crewed by members of the Royal Naval Air Service, the Seabrook armored car.

Naval Armored Truck

It was based on the Seabrook five-ton truck chassis and armed with two Maxim MGs, and one 3-Pounder Hotchkiss gun. It was fairly successful despite its weight of ten tons. They were used on the Western Front and in Egypt, adding firepower to the armored car units they were assigned to. 30 were built.

Naval Armored Truck with crew

The model can be assembled in traveling mode or firing mode. It's available as a model on its own, with crew and the crew are available as a set on their own.

Crew

It's in the new subheading of Royal Naval Air Service WWI, In the Nautical Nonsense Chandlery section of our website.
