Midland1965 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Can anybody tell me the rough dimensions of modern RN life raft canisters, in particular those on HMS Queen Elizabeth, please? I can find plenty of photos but no dimensions. This is for a 1/1250 model so the original sizes don't need to be exact to the mm - I just want to get close enough that the overall look is right.

Chewbacca Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I'm not sure of the specific liferafts carried by QE (I know that she has a unique mass evacuation device so the liferafts themselves may be different) but as far as I can recall standard RN 25 man liferaft cannisters are approx 1450mm x 720mm if that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
