Hobby Boss 86518 HMS Lord Clive 1/350 – Plastic assembly model kit of the British WWI monitor warship

The Hobby Boss 86518 HMS Lord Clive in 1/350 scale is an exceptionally accurate miniature replica of one of the most interesting and unconventional vessels of the British Royal Navy. HMS Lord Clive was a monitor-class ship—designed for intense bombardment of land fortifications from coastal waters. Built between 1915–1918 from a converted merchant hull, it was equipped with a powerful 305 mm main gun, allowing precise targeting of German positions on the Western Front, especially during operations off the coast of Belgium.
