Model U.S.S. Constitution - 54 Gun United States Frigate 1797 - wooden ship model kit

Mamoli - no. MV31 - scale 1:93

The USS Constitution was an American frigate with 54 guns, launched on October 21, 1797. It was larger and had bigger sails and equipment than other ships of the same class at the time. Thanks to its sturdy construction, it earned the nickname “Old Ironsides.” It took part in several naval battles, the most famous of which was the victory over the English frigate Guerriere on August 19, 1812, during the war with Great Britain. The ship was then converted into a training ship and underwent various modifications. Currently, anchored in the Navy Yard in Boston, it serves as a naval museum.

In this model, the bottom of the hull is covered with copper plates, just like in the original, which gives the model a very realistic look.
