--A quiet battle under the sea in the Soviet Union, England !!
[About the actual ship]
--The HMS Trafalgar is the first nuclear submarine Trafalgar-class ship built by the United Kingdom in the 1970s and 1980s.
--Underwater displacement of 5200 tons, total length of 85.4m. It is equipped with one Rolls-Royce PWR1 reactor and is said to exhibit a speed of 29 knots underwater.
--The operation started in 1983 and was removed in 2009.
――We are launching a Tomahawk cruise missile that was also carried in the attack on Afghanistan after 9/11.
――On the other hand, the Soviet nuclear submarine, which was commissioned by Type I in 1980 and Type II in 1986, is the Oscar type.
――Two ships for Type I and 13 ships for Type II have been completed.
--The total length is 144m for type I and 155m for type II, and the amount of drainage in water is 22500 tons for type I and 24000 tons for type II.
――Although some of them have already been retired, they were deployed to the Northern Fleet and the Pacific Fleet, respectively, and were active.
[About the model]
-The model is a set of plastic model assembly kit that reproduces two ships of HMS Trafalgar and Soviet nuclear submarine Oscar class built and operated by the United Kingdom on a 1/700 scale.
--Oscar models Type II.
--The HMS Trafalgar has a finished length of about 12 cm, while the Oscar has a finished length of about 22 cm.
――The difference in size will be interesting to assemble.
-Both hulls are divided into upper and lower parts, and the shape unique to submarines is firmly reproduced.
――The number of parts is small and it is easy to assemble.
――The 1/700 scale kit, which has a reasonable finished size, is a set of two ships, so it is attractive to make and compare.
-The details of the hull surface and the appearance of the screws, rudder, etc. are reproduced with a real feeling.
――In addition, the bridge also firmly expresses details such as the periscope.
--This kit also includes one Royal Air Force BAE Nimrod MR.2 of the same scale and two seeking helicopters.
――I'm looking forward to comparing the two large and small rivals.
