Keel laid 1/7/36
Launched 14/2/39

My favourite is Scharnhorst and I have the Airfix 1:400 version sitting in a box unmade beside my cupboard. It'd be nice but too bloody costly to build a 1:1 version of those for real but could you imagine Navy Days, sorry - Festival of the Sea with a craft like that cruising in ?
