Commissioned in 1940 and destroyed in 1941, the Bismarck — the lead ship of her class of massive battleships built for the Kriegsmarine during World War II — served brief but notably in northern European waters where she terrorized Allied shipping and destroyed the HMS Hood at the Battle of Denmark Strait.
A stunning replica of the Nazi ship, this 1/700 scale, die cast model features an amazing attention to historical authenticity including a revised color scheme (based on thorough visual research), realistic deck and superstructure details, a new wooden-look presentation stand, and a sea-wave blister for unique waterline display. Measures approximately 13¾" long.
