British 4.5 Inch QF Marks I, III and IV

1:700 Master

 

 

The QF 4.5 inch L/45 was developed as a dual-purpose gun for aircraft carriers, battleships and battle cruisers of the Royal Navy. It was later adapter for use on destroyers as the Mark IV, replacing the 4.7 inch gun. Despite the slightly smaller calibre, it used a heavier shell and was capable of inflicting greater damage. Master are well-known for their brass barrels, all of which are streets ahead of their plastic counterparts. These barrels look excellent and should be just as easy to use as any others.
