Product
The Russian Sailing-Screw Frigate Oleg is a highly detailed 1:200 scale card model kit from Orel Publishing, faithfully representing a historic warship of the Imperial Russian Navy from the mid-19th century.
Laid down at the Kronstadt Shipyard in 1858 and launched in 1860, Oleg was a hybrid sailing and steam-powered frigate that marked a transitional era in naval engineering. The ship met her fate in 1869 during squadron maneuvers in the Gulf of Finland, when a collision with the armoured floating battery Kremlin caused her to sink. Remarkably, the wreck still rests at a depth of 56 meters with minimal structural damage.
This 26-sheet A4 card model kit offers an immersive and rewarding build for experienced modelers and naval history enthusiasts. With English-language instructions, precise detailing, and accurate proportions, it is an excellent addition to any military fleet or maritime model collection.
