As a technologically advanced vessel, the ship was equipped with nuclear propulsion, which provided it with unlimited operational range. USS Virginia participated in numerous exercises and patrols in the Atlantic and Mediterranean, setting new standards in fleet protection against air and missile threats. The cruiser was withdrawn from active service in 1994.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eFeatures of the Dragon 7090 model\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/700 – ideal for warship collections\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of operation: USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHistorical period: Cold War (years 1976–1994)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncluded extras: decals with hull numbers and identification markings, detailed weapon and radar components\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRealistic depiction of components: Terrier and Tomahawk missiles, artillery, ECM systems, landing pad and hangar for the SH-2 Seasprite helicopter\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Dragon\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCategory: plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRecommendation and difficulty level\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Dragon 7090 U.S.S.
