Historical Data and Use

The 100 mm/70 (3.9in) AK-100 gun has been used by Soviet/Russian navies on a broad range of modern warships: from the 1970s (Cold War) up to the present day. This armament can be found on Project 1144 (Kirov/Admiral Ushakov) missile cruisers, Project 1155 (Udaloy) destroyers, the former Bditelny, as well as the modern Neusrashimy. The system saw widespread service in routine fleet operations, escort missions, and numerous Russian navy exercises.

Category and Compatibility

• accessories for 1:700 scale ship models
• metal upgrade parts for modelling (brass upgrade parts – metal barrels)
• compatible with plastic kits from various manufacturers

Recommendation and Difficulty Level

We recommend this product to advanced modelers seeking ultimate realism and detail in their warship miniatures, as well as enthusiasts of the Russian and Soviet navies. The brass barrels are an excellent upgrade for standard plastic kit parts, correcting the lack of precision and scale fidelity typical for injection-molded components.

• Assembly difficulty: 3/5. Requires precision – you need to cut off the old barrel, drill a hole and glue the brass barrel with cyanoacrylate.
• The perfect choice for diorama collectors, Cold War history buffs, and ship modelers specializing in the USSR/Russian Navy.
