The KFK (Kriegsfischkutter) represents the largest series of vessels built by Germany during the war—with as many as 1,072 units ordered, of which 612 were produced. They served in the Kriegsmarine on many fronts—from the waters of the North Sea, through the Atlantic, to the Mediterranean and Black Seas.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Developed in 1941 by \u003cem\u003eMaierform GmbH Bremen\u003c\/em\u003e, the design was based on a proven fishing seiner. Production began a year later and was carried out also outside Germany, including in Ukraine. The boats were characterized by a simple, technological construction—a wooden hull and diesel propulsion ensured constructional simplicity and high cost-effectiveness. Thanks to the possibility of diverse armament, KFKs could serve as patrol boats, escort vessels, minesweepers, training craft, or anti-submarine cutters.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/350 – perfect for miniature ship collections\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUser country:\u003c\/strong\u003e Germany (Kriegsmarine)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHistorical period:\u003c\/strong\u003e World War II (years 1942–1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e high-quality modeling plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtras:\u003c\/strong\u003e the kit includes precisely reproduced hull parts, deck armament, and superstructure details; glue and paints are not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    This model kit from ICM will appeal to both 1\/350 scale fleet collectors and naval history enthusiasts.
