ICM 1/700 Scale WWI German Battleship Models

ICM's 1/700 scale WWI German battleship collection brings the mighty König-class dreadnoughts to your workbench with unprecedented accuracy and detail. These kits represent some of the most powerful warships that served in the Imperial German Navy during World War I, participating in the pivotal Battle of Jutland in 1916. Each model is available in both full hull and waterline configurations, allowing modelers to choose their preferred display style.

König-Class Battleship Details

The König-class battleships were among Germany's most advanced dreadnoughts, featuring ten 12-inch guns in five twin turrets, secondary armament batteries, and heavily armored belt protection. ICM has captured these technical details with precision-molded parts that accurately reproduce the distinctive superstructure, rangefinder positions, and deck equipment. The Markgraf served as flagship during Jutland, while Großer Kurfürst and Kronprinz fought alongside her in the Third Battle Squadron.
