The "Königsberg" was one of three sister ships of the K-class light cruisers—innovative for the 1920s. During World War II, it took part, among others, in the invasion of Norway, where it distinguished itself during operations in the Bergen fjord. The ship sank in 1940 as a result of a British air raid—becoming one of the first heavy warships to be sunk entirely by air attack.

The deluxe version offers an unprecedented number of fine details and photo-etched extras: railings, stairs, elevators, mast and artillery components. Especially notable are the metal barrels for the main and secondary artillery, brass details, and multi-colored decals allowing you to reproduce the "Königsberg" deck markings. The metal ballast provides solidity and stability to the model, while the included cable enables accurate rigging replication.

We highly recommend this product for experienced modelers seeking the highest level of challenge and realism (difficulty level 5/5). Due to the degree of assembly complexity and the presence of very tiny parts, amateurs and beginners may face difficulties. FlyHawk Model FH1125S German Light Cruiser Königsberg 1940 Deluxe Edition is an excellent choice for an advanced 1/700 scale warship collection.
