1/700 Scale Richelieu 1943 Model from Trumpeter 05750

The Trumpeter 05750 kit recreates the Richelieu in its 1943 refit form, including the enhanced anti-aircraft fit and radar installations added during service. The 1/700 scale makes this a detailed but compact project for enthusiasts focused on naval history and realistic small-scale modelling.

Originally launched in 1939, the Richelieu served in several operations before undergoing a major refit in the United States. During that refit 40mm Bofors and 20mm Oerlikons were fitted to strengthen air defence. This kit models those upgrades so builders can represent the ship's mid-war appearance accurately.

  • Scale: 1:700
  • Length: 355.5 mm
  • Width: 48.5 mm
  • Total Plastic Parts: 366 pieces
  • Decal Marking: 1943
  • Total Sprues: 14, plus lower hull, upper hull, decks, waterline plate, and display stand

What level of finishing does this kit require?

The kit is supplied unpainted and needs careful assembly and painting to reach a high-quality finish; expect to use primer, detail paints and fine brushes or airbrush for best results.

Are aftermarket photoetched parts recommended?

While the kit has good plastic detail, some modellers choose photoetched sets for finer railings and ladders to enhance realism at 1/700 scale.

Does the kit include a display stand?

Yes, a display stand and a waterline plate are included so you can present the Richelieu as a static display without additional purchases.
