Dumas U.S.S. Crocket Kit (1218)

The U.S.S. Crockett was one of seventeen gunboats in the Asheville Class. This class has the distinction of being the first group of Navy ships to be powered by a gas turbine. The Crockett was capable of a top speed of 50 knots, but more impressive still was the fact that she could accelerate her 230 tonnes from 0 to 40 knots in 60 seconds. Stationed in South Vietnam, the Crockett was designed for coastal patrol, blockade reconnaissance, and support missions. But rest assured, when duty called, the crew of the U.S.S. Crockett could get there in a hurry. The Dumas model of the Crockett is a builder's boat. She features balsa plank-over Die cut mahogany frame construction for the hull and conventional Die cut construction for the superstructure. #2105 is an optional deck hardware kit with more than 80 cast fittings. Included in the deck hardware are all the armaments needed to send her into battle. #2341 is the twin-screw running hardware kit used to drive the Crockett. It has everything needed to complete your driveline except motors. Use two Dumas motors #2004 for 6V power. If you are a military enthusiast, you will certainly want to try your hand at the Dumas U.S.S. Crockett.
