About product

Type 055 of the PLA Navy in 1:200 scale

An injection-molded plastic kit of the large Type 055 guided missile destroyer in 1:200 scale from Trumpeter. The scale is an advantage for a modern ship with the faceted surfaces of the superstructure - the edges of the hull and the breakdown of the superstructure are big enough to be sanded and painted cleanly.

The real subject

The Type 055 is the largest surface combatant of the PLA Navy and in Western literature the designation Renhai class is used for it. The ship is designed with a view to a reduced radar signature: the hull has sloped sides, the superstructure is continuous and the mast is integrated into a block with the faces of the radar antennas. The armament is concentrated in extensive universal vertical launch cells in the bow and in the stern, which allows the ship to carry out air-defense, anti-ship and anti-submarine tasks. At the stern there is a helicopter deck with a hangar. The first unit entered service at the turn of the second decade of this century and others followed in quick succession.

Building and painting tips

On ships with a reduced radar signature the result is decided mainly by the cleanness of the surfaces, so fill the joints of the superstructure carefully and sand them smooth. Apply the gray finish with an airbrush in thin coats and grade the shade slightly, so that the large flat surfaces do not look dead. Leave the deck markings and the landing circle until the surface is finished and clear-coated. Fit the railings and the fine antennas at the end, when there is no longer any risk of bending them while the model is handled.

Who the model is for

  • For anyone interested in contemporary warships and their development
  • For collectors of PLA Navy equipment
  • For modelers who want a large model with clean surfaces
  • For more advanced builders with experience of painting extensive parts

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is a large guided missile destroyer of the PLA Navy, designated the Renhai class in Western literature. The name does not specify a particular unit.

Rather for a more advanced builder. Large smooth surfaces forgive little and call for careful filling and even painting.

Modern Chinese surface ships carry a single gray finish. We recommend working with several slightly different shades of gray to bring the large surfaces to life.

Check the contents of the package against the instructions in the box and plan the fitting out of the helicopter deck accordingly.
