Five Star Master Excellence in Naval Modeling
Five Star Master has established itself as a distinguished manufacturer of high-quality naval ship model kits, with particular expertise in bringing rare and historically significant warships to the modeling community.

The French Navy Richelieu Battleship 1943 exemplifies Five Star Master's commitment to excellence, capturing this remarkable fast battleship in its 1943 configuration with authentic details including the distinctive quadruple 380mm gun turrets positioned forward, comprehensive anti-aircraft armament, unique French naval architecture, and period-correct camouflage schemes. The Richelieu class represented the pinnacle of French naval engineering, combining powerful armament with high speed and elegant design that distinguished French capital ships from their contemporaries. Five Star Master's engineering delivers crisp panel lines, finely detailed superstructure components, accurately scaled weapons systems, and comprehensive photo-etched brass parts that elevate these kits to museum-quality standards.
