Historical information and application

The included barrels are faithful replicas of the main 380 mm (15 inch) guns mounted on the famous German battleships Bismarck and Tirpitz. Both vessels served in the Kriegsmarine during World War II – Bismarck became legendary during the Atlantic campaign in 1941, while her sister ship Tirpitz was active from 1941 to 1944, posing a threat to the Allies in the North Sea and Norwegian fjords. Accurate reproduction of these barrels allows the realism of models of both battleships to be raised to the highest level.
