Description

HMS Minotaur Armored Cruiser

The British Minotaur-class armored cruisers carried substantial gun batteries and belt protection before the First World War. They were intended for fleet and imperial duties in an era before the battlecruiser rendered many armored-cruiser assumptions obsolete. Minotaur served during the war, while sister ship Defence was destroyed at Jutland. The class should not be confused with later light-cruiser designs bearing the same traditional name, since the technologies and tactical expectations were very different. The class carried a mixed heavy-gun battery characteristic of late armored cruisers, before battlecruisers changed expectations for fast capital ships. Service could involve overseas station duties as well as fleet operations. Minotaur’s experience connects Britain’s worldwide prewar naval commitments with the concentration of powerful forces required during the First World War.

Although it has quite hardy composition & excellent details, caution were required about the 'Masts' in order to avoid any breakages-! For whenever such occurred, you should have on hand the 'Glue' to affix that in repair of/for 'aesthetics', or don't-?.

These models are really well done. the old metal ones where pretty much a slab of metal. The all sit on their keel evenly. Not for the Battle Line line but for scouting or taking on merchant ships and small escorts. Again, the Grand Fleet grows, to the modeling expertise of Doug and the HBG Team.
