Description

Set of 8 turned barrels of 380 mm calibre for German battleships Bismarck and Tirpitz in 1:700 scale

Aber 1:700L-14 is a set of 8 precisely turned metal barrels of 380 mm calibre in 1:700 scale, a detailing accessory for ship models. The turned barrels replace the factory plastic parts, improving the fidelity of the artillery.

Turned metal barrels – a quick model upgrade

Replacing plastic barrels with turned metal ones is one of the simplest ways to raise the quality of a ship model. Metal barrels have a perfectly round cross-section and crisp muzzle edges that are hard to achieve in plastic parts.

For assembly it is worth considering cyanoacrylate glue, which bonds metal to plastic well. Delicate parts are best fitted after a dry test fit.

About the ships – Bismarck and Tirpitz:

Bismarck and Tirpitz were two German battleships of the same class from the Second World War. Their main armament consisted of eight 380 mm guns mounted in four twin turrets.

Bismarck was sunk in May 1941, while Tirpitz remained a threat to Allied convoys until its destruction in 1944. Both ships are among the most frequently modelled units of the German Kriegsmarine.
