About product

Argentine Carrier Independencia (V-1) 1958 in 1:72 scale

A surface with printing of the deck of the Argentine aircraft carrier Independencia with the tactical designation V-1, related to the year 1958. It serves as a setting for a finished model in 1:72 and it is neither a kit of the ship nor a set of parts. It is enough to lay it out and stand an aircraft or a helicopter on it.

About the ship

Independencia was a light aircraft carrier of the Colossus class that Argentina acquired from Great Britain at the end of the 1950s. It lasted in the service of the Argentine Navy until the early 1970s and carried propeller as well as jet machines of its naval aviation. For a modeler it is interesting precisely because it joins a wartime British design with South American colors and markings, a combination you will not often meet among surfaces for models.

Tips on presentation

  • Angle a carrier machine slightly; the composition then lives better.
  • Lay the surface on a darker table, so that the edges do not blend with the background.
  • Leave a free area around the model; the deck gains in size from it.
  • Bring out the shadow under the fuselage by lighting from above and slightly from the side.

The ship in a wider context

Light aircraft carriers of the Colossus class came about during the Second World War as a cheaper complement to the large carriers, and after it they dispersed all over the world. They served under the Dutch, Canadian, French, Indian and Brazilian flag, and that is precisely why a deck of the same shape appears in scenes with completely different markings.

Who it is for

It will be appreciated by anyone interested in South American naval aviation, by builders of postwar carrier machines and by collectors looking for a theme outside the mainstream. It also suits models of British origin, because the ship came out of British shipyards.

FAQ

It was a light aircraft carrier of the Colossus class of British origin that Argentina took into service at the end of the 1950s.

No, it is exclusively a printed surface. The machine you stand on the deck is bought separately.

It relates to the period the motif of the deck is tied to, that is, to the form of the ship at the end of the 1950s.
