Trumpeter 06251 HMS WALRUS 1/350 – plastic model kit

The Trumpeter 06251 HMS WALRUS 1/350 scale submarine model is a detailed miniature of the British Oberon-class submarine. The kit belongs to the "plastic model kit" category and is a great option for modelers interested in recreating modern naval vessels.

The original HMS Walrus (S08) served in the Royal Navy, the naval forces of the United Kingdom. The Oberon-class was designed in the late 1950s as an upgrade to the Porpoise-class submarine series. HMS Walrus was launched in 1960 and served mainly during the Cold War, participating in NATO operational patrols and training exercises.

The model, designed by renowned manufacturer Trumpeter, is characterized by numerous details that capture the original appearance of HMS Walrus. The assembled model measures 39.92 mm in length and 32.42 mm in width, making it an ideal choice for any 1/350 scale ship collection. The kit consists of 54 plastic parts, spread across 6 sprues, allowing for accurate reproduction of the hull, sail, and details of the superstructure and armament.
