                                               NOTE : THIS MODEL WAS JUST  AN IDEAL , NO ONE IN  REALITY 
    This  Russian Udaloy  class DDG  model of  mine  was basicly  built  from  Chinese  made  kit  ( I don't  know  kit  brand ) . Kit  parts
 are  not   good  in  detail  ( seem to be  clunky )  .  So , it's  a  hard  job  to  make  this  model  look  massive  and  good  in detail.  
     Any  how  ,  let  thank  to parts of  my  damaged  1 : 300  Bremen  class  frigate  (  model  accidentally  fell down from  show 
 case )  , many   parts from this  damaged  model   i.e.  propellers with  shafts  , rudder , ship rail ,  mast  structure , fire control 
 attenna ,life rafts, Sea lynx helicopter , etc. were  adopted  and  fixed  to  this  Udaloy  model , model  came  out  very  good  looking.    
      As a matter  of  fact  , I intended to build  this  Udaloy model  different  from  the  original  one . The  reason is I  built  it under  my  
Concept and imagination by supposing  that  incase Royal Thai Navy  would  put  this  class  of  ship  in  operation  , how this class of 
ship  would look  like .  Thus , do not  be  serious because  it's  just  merely  a  model  in  ideal ....not  real.
      Now  let's  take  a  look  to  those thirteen detailed  pictures .-
