It was developed between 1937 and 1942 by the Krupp company. Its caliber was a staggering 800 mm and the barrel length was over 32 meters. Dora was used during the 1942 siege of Sevastopol by the Wehrmacht, where dozens of shots were fired at fortified Soviet positions. Due to its gigantic size and complicated logistics, Dora was more a demonstration of German technical capabilities than a practical weapon of war. Ultimately, only two examples of this gun were ever built.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eScale:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\/72\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCountry of use:\u003c\/b\u003e Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHistorical period:\u003c\/b\u003e World War II (1939–1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHistorical use:\u003c\/b\u003e Siege of Sevastopol, Eastern Front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eModel Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoes not include glue and paints (to be purchased separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich in details, including replicated railway chassis, barrel components, detailed loading mechanisms, and realistic surface texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRealistic arrangement of service platforms and operating decks replicating the original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge size when assembled: makes an impressive display piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe highly recommend the Hobby Boss 82911 German 80cm K(E) Railway Gun Dora (1\/72) model to all advanced modelers who want to enrich their collection with a unique and striking World War II exhibit.
