1/700 Vilna Ukraina (Trumpeter)
The Trumpeter 1/700 scale Ukrainia Slava Class Cruiser is a super great kit to build, When built with the White Ensign Models photo etch detail set it became so intricate I decided to make a display case for it because otherwise it would get dusty and trying to remove the dust could very easily damage the model.
The current status of the VMSU Ukrainia is uncertain, but public data suggests the ship has reverted to Russian control and has re-assumed the name Admiral Lobov. Construction of the ship has resumed by both Ukraine and Russia recently, for sale to a potential buyer, most likely China or India.
