This is a resin or white metal ship model kit.
The battleship Conte di Cavour was a IJN class battleship completed by the Royal Italian Navy during World War I.
When commissioned in 1915, she was 176.9 meters long with a displacement of 25,086 tons (standing).
During the modernization from 1933 to 1937, the bow was lengthened by about 10 meters to 186.39 meters, and the engines were converted from 20 water tube cans/3 turbines to 8 fired water tube cans/2 geared turbines, and the maximum speed was reduced from 21.5 knots to The maximum speed was increased from 21.5 knots to 28 knots.
After the modification, the ship was armed with two 32cm triple cannon + two of the same type, six 12cm rapid-fire cannons, four 100mm anti-aircraft guns, four 37mm machine guns, and six 13.2mm machine guns.
In the early stages of World War II, she exchanged fire with the British fleet, but in 1940, she was heavily damaged in an air raid by the British fleet on Taranto, and was salvaged the following year.
She was scheduled to be repaired in the port of Trieste, but was seized by the Germans after the armistice following the surrender of the Kingdom of Italy in 1943.
Conte di Cavour was attacked by U.S. aircraft in 1945, capsized and sank, and was abandoned and dismantled in 1948.
This time, two types of Conte di Cavour will be released at the same time: a full hull type and an offshore model (this product).
Each kit comes with resin parts, 3D printed parts, metal gun barrel parts (2 types), etched parts and Italian Navy flag decal.
When completed, the overall length of the model will be approximately 266mm.
Released by Triumph Models in China. Full resin kit.
