1:200 CSS Tallahassee Paper Model

From Heinkel Models

The CSS Tallahassee was commissioned on July 20, 1864 in the United Kingdom, but was soon purchased by the Confederate States Navy. The Tallahassee was powered two 100 h.p. steam engines and had a mast with sails if needed. The top speed of the Tallahassee was 15 knots and was armed with one rifled 32 pounder on the forward deck, one rifled 100 pounder amidship and one heavy Parrot aft. Placed under the command of Commander John Taylor Wood of the CSN, the Tallahassee conducted operations along the Atlantic coastline. During this time, it destroyed 26 ships and captured an additional seven ships. By late 1864, the Tallahassee was renamed CSS Olustee and then renamed again late December 1864 to CSS Chameleon. Being unable to obtain provisions for the Confederate Navy in Bermuda, Lt. Wilkinson instead traveled towards Liverpool, England to turn the ship over to Commander JD Bullock, Financial Agent of the Confederate Naval Department. However, upon arrival to England on April 9, 1865, the CSS Chameleon was seized by British authorities and remained in British hands until late April 1966 when she was returned back to the United States government.

This paper model builds a paper model of the CSS Tallahassee.
