Product Description

The HMS Mordaunt card model kit by Orel Publishing represents a powerful English 54-gun frigate of the IV rank from 1681, designed at a 1:100 scale for advanced ship modelers. This historically accurate paper model depicts a heavily armed private warship commissioned by a group of ship-owners led by Lord Mordaunt, later the Earl of Peterborough.

The model reflects this uniqueness with an extraordinary level of detail, capturing the elegance and complexity of the English sailing fleet.

The kit consists of 46 A4 pages and includes English-language instructions, making it accessible to international modelers while still challenging even experienced builders.
