## Description

Type: Gunboat Series: Navy Country: China, 1875 Scale: 1: 100 Volume: 12 x A4 The first Chinese-built armored ship. A small low-draft ship, launched at the end of September 1875, carried a fixed casemate on deck, shifted to the bow and protected by plates of iron armor 2.38 inches thick (about 60 mm). Initially, the ship was intended for patrolling in the southern reaches of the river. Yangtze and the defense of its main navigable mouth - Usun. Krupp's only 170-mm gun fired through the port in the front wall of the casemate. Around 1887, the gunboat was renamed Tianxing. During the Franco-Chinese War, she carried out patrol service along with other, more modern warships. After the Xinhai Revolution of 1911, the ship entered the armed forces of Anhui province, where it continued to be listed in the fleet until 1914. Quite a simple model that can be recommended to novice modelers.
