Looks like a second class torpedo boat from a battleship, i seen similar boats on Panteleimon/Potemkin and Retvizan. This is a model of a steam mine boat from the battleship Peresvet. I talked about this model on 2 pages of this topic. There were other boats on the Potemkin and Retvizan.

VonHoldinghausen Posted December 19, 2022 Share #1082 Posted December 19, 2022 (edited) Hi and congratz on a fantastic master build! I have always been a bit curious about the russian ships by the name of "Retvizan", because it was obviously a name carried by at least one Swedish warship: "HMS Rättvisan" in the late 1800s. I think there were more than one "Rättvisan" in the Swedish navy over the years. The name would in english translate into something like "HMS The Justice". Any knowledge on these russian Retvizan-ships?

VonHoldinghausen Posted December 19, 2022 Share #1084 Posted December 19, 2022 How very interesting! Thank you very much! I am surprised though that the russian navy kept the name.
