Battleship Bismarck 1/700 Scale, 05098 by Revell

The Bismarck was next to the Tirpitz the largest battleship built by Germany in World War II. The 251 m long ship was put into service on August 24, 1940. After completing the training trips, she took part in the Rhine exercise company. On May 24, 1941, she sank the British battle cruiser HMS Hood in a naval battle off Greenland. Then the bow-damaged Bismarck headed for a French port. In pursuit of British ships and planes, the ship was shot incapacitated on May 27, 1941 and sank in the Atlantic. Finely structured components with rivets and recessed sheet metal joints authentically reflect this imposing battleship. Other features of the kit include the movable turrets, with individual movable tubes.
