Splash846 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I built HMS London for my Brother who served on her as a Gunner working on the 4.5 in guns.the kit needed quite a lot of work to bring it up to date and I used the Atlanic Models PE set, that totally improved the 965 radar and the Sea Slug missile launcher .

Aad Gadgie Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 That's a very nice tribute, and well presented, the sea surface is excellent - well done! The County class "destroyers" - in reality, cruisers - were very fine ships, solidly built, and solidly crewed, as their fine records show. One of them, HMS Glamorgan, survived a hit by an Exocet missile in the Falklands War of 1982 - a unique achievement. I believe HMS London was the last ship of the Royal Navy to fire a broadside, all subsequent vessels mounting only single main guns. Again, nice job, thanks for sharing, and thanks to your brother for his service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
