Trumpeter 06704 - 1/700 HMS Dreadnought 1907: Museum Style Scale Ship

The HMS Dreadnought, launched in 1906, changed naval design priorities with its heavy main battery and turbine propulsion. This Trumpeter 1/700 kit reproduces that influential silhouette for modellers seeking historically faithful subjects.

The Ship's Influence and Model Accuracy

The Dreadnought rendered earlier capital ships outdated and introduced a new standard in armament layout. The kit reflects those major visual cues so builders can capture the ship's iconic look in miniature.

Construction Approach and Tips

Designed for those comfortable with fine assembly, the kit requires precise gluing and careful part preparation. The moulded components present the superstructure and gun mounts clearly, rewarding neat workmanship.

Presentation and Shelf Presence

Once assembled and painted, the model provides a convincing centrepiece for naval displays and pairs well with other early 1900s vessels in a collection.
