Waterline model of HMS Picotee, 1940-1 ('Flower-class' corvette, Royal Navy)

Scale 1:96

She had a short and tragic career. Built by Harland & Wolff in Belfast, she came into service
in September 1940 but, in August 1941, while escorting convoy ON 5, she was torpedoed and sunk
by U-568 off southern Iceland. All hands (60-70) were lost.


other sizes: small medium large original auto
