Under andre verdenskrig var Tripitz en evigvarende bekymring for The Royal Navy da dens tilstedeværelse i Norge var en trussel til de allierte konvoiene. Store mengder resurser ble brukt til å motvirke hennes potensielle trekk inntil Royal Airforce bombefly sank henne.

Tamiya leverer her et høydetaljert byggesett i 1/350 skala av Tripitz. Detaljert monteringsmanual medfølger, lim, maling og verktøy må kjøpes utenom.

The Lonely Queen of the North
The sole sister ship of the Bismarck, the Tirpitz was a perpetual worry for the Royal Navy since its presence in Norway was a threat to Allied convoys. Considerable resources were spent countering her potential moves until she was finally sunk by Royal Airforce bombers. Tamiya now brings you this marvel of German engineering as a highly-detailed 1/350 scale assembly kit display model. The elegant lines of the Tirpitz are accurately reproduced and distinguishing features that set her apart from the Bismarck such as quadruple torpedo tubes are also recreated in great detail. The model comes with a specially made display base and a beautiful nameplate for an impressive display.
