Recreate one of the Royal Navy’s most iconic warships with this detailed 1:350 scale model of HMS Belfast in her 1942 configuration. The kit includes 520 pieces across 11 sprues and decks, plus metal chain, photo-etch parts, two Walrus seaplanes, and a display stand.

HMS Belfast returned to the Home Fleet in 1942 as the largest and most powerful cruiser of her time, equipped with advanced radar systems. She played a vital role in protecting Arctic convoys, fought at the Battle of the North Cape, and supported the D-Day landings. Today, HMS Belfast is preserved by IWM on the River Thames, a lasting tribute to her service.
