DeAgostini 1:1250 German Bundesmarine Hamburg Class Destroyer - Hamburg, #DAKS63

Description

"Damn the torpedoes. Full speed ahead!"
- Admiral Farragut sailing aboard his flagship Hartford while entering Mobile Bay, Alabama, August 23, 1864
Hamburg (D181) was the lead ship of the Hamburg-class destroyer of the German Navy. The Type 101 Hamburg class was the only class of destroyers built during post-war Germany. They were specifically designed to operate in the Baltic Sea, where armament and speed is more important than seaworthiness. They were named after Bundeslander (states of Germany) of West Germany.
The German shipyard Stulcken was contracted to design and build the ships. Stulcken was rather inexperienced with naval shipbuilding, but got the order, since the shipyards traditionally building warships for the German navies like Blohm and Voss, Howaldtswerke or Lurssen were all occupied constructing commercial vessels.
Shown here is a 1:1250 scale replica of the famed German Bundesmarine Hamburg class destroyer, Hamburg (D181).
