Diverse Naval History in 1/350 Scale
Zvezda has established a distinguished reputation for producing highly detailed ship model kits that span the entire spectrum of maritime history, from Age of Sail vessels to cutting-edge modern submarines. This collection demonstrates that remarkable range with three dramatically different subjects: the Borey-class Vladimir Monomakh representing Russia's latest strategic deterrent submarines, the historic Soviet K-19 submarine immortalized in Cold War history, and the Santa Maria sailing ship that carried Columbus to the New World in 1492. Each kit reflects Zvezda's commitment to historical accuracy, engineering excellence, and accessible pricing that makes premium naval modeling available to enthusiasts at all levels.
Modern Submarines and Historic Exploration
The Borey-class Vladimir Monomakh kit captures Russia's fourth-generation nuclear ballistic missile submarine with its distinctive hull form, sail configuration, and missile compartment. The Soviet K-19 submarine recreates the vessel known as "The Widowmaker" with accurate Cold War era details and the dramatic history of its 1961 reactor accident. The Santa Maria sailing ship provides a complete contrast with period-correct hull construction, rigging plans, deck details, and the characteristic high castles of 15th-century carracks. These diverse subjects allow modelers to explore different eras and construction techniques while maintaining consistent 1/350 scale compatibility with other manufacturer ships for comprehensive displays.

Manufactured with precision injection molding, these ship kits offer excellent detail, accurate dimensions, and straightforward assembly at competitive prices.
