Product Description

The Solferino Card Model Kit 1:200 from Orel Publishing (No. 210) recreates one of the most distinctive French ironclads of the 19th century. Launched in 1861, Solferino was a Magenta-class armour-plated ship and one of only two warships in the world to feature a unique double-deck gun battery, allowing exceptional firepower without increasing hull length.

This highly detailed paper model faithfully represents the wooden hull reinforced with forged iron armor plating, as well as the powerful iron battering ram designed for ramming tactics. Designed for naval history enthusiasts and advanced card modelers, the kit offers an accurate and impressive build in large 1:200 scale, with clear English-language instructions.
