TAMIYA 1/350 BATTLESHIP BISMARCK KIT

This is a 1:350 scale Plastic German Battleship Bismarck from Tamiya.

On May 24th, 1941 the Royal Navy dealt one of its most shattering blows. 
The 42,000 ton German battlecruiser Bismarck was destroyed after an attack that lasted only eight minutes.  The Bismarck was the largest and most modern ship in service with the German fleet.  Three days after the most celebrated sea  chase of the Second World War, which involved no fewer that three British battleships, two battlecruisers, two aircraft carriers, nine cruisers, and countless destroyers, the Bismarck was reduced to a blazing hulk.  This came only nine months after she was commissioned.
