She was launched in 1511 and served for 33 years in several wars against France, Scotland, and Brittany. After being substantially rebuilt in 1536, she saw her last action on 19 July 1545. She led the attack on the galleys of a French invasion fleet, but sank in the Solent, the strait north of the Isle of Wight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wreck of the Mary Rose was located in 1971 and was raised on 11 October 1982 by the Mary Rose Trust in one of the most complex and expensive maritime salvage projects in history. The surviving section of the ship and thousands of recovered artefacts are of great value as a Tudor period time capsule. The excavation and raising of the Mary Rose was a milestone in the field of maritime archaeology, comparable in complexity and cost to the raising of the 17th-century Swedish warship Vasa in 1961. The Mary Rose site is designated under the Protection of Wrecks Act 1973 by statutory instrument 1974\/55. The wreck is a Protected Wreck managed by Historic England.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe finds include weapons, sailing equipment, naval supplies, and a wide array of objects used by the crew. Many of the artefacts are unique to the Mary Rose and have provided insights into topics ranging from naval warfare to the history of musical instruments. The remains of the hull have been on display at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard since the mid-1980s while undergoing restoration. An extensive collection of well-preserved artefacts is on display at the Mary Rose Museum, built to display the remains of the ship and its artefacts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMary Rose was one of the largest ships in the English navy through more than three decades of intermittent war, and she was one of the earliest examples of a purpose-built sailing warship. She was armed with new types of heavy guns that could fire through the recently invented gun-ports. She was substantially rebuilt in 1536 and was also one of the earliest ships that could fire a broadside, although the line of battle tactics had not yet been developed. Several theories have sought to explain the demise of the Mary Rose, based on historical records, knowledge of 16th-century shipbuilding, and modern experiments. The precise cause of her sinking is subject to conflicting testimonies and a lack of conclusive evidence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Airfix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46600116568378,"sku":"MMMS-HHC-A55114A","price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/4603\/7306\/files\/a55114a_1.jpg?v=1702728129"},{"product_id":"revell-1-241st-scale-star-wars-millennium-falcon","title":"Revell 1\/241st scale Star Wars Millennium Falcon","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Millennium Falcon flown by Han Solo is the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Finely engraved surfaces\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Replica cockpit\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Moving radar antenna\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Display stand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Revell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46986978623802,"sku":"MMMS-RVL-03600","price":9.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/4603\/7306\/files\/613445_1000_1_-revell-star-wars-millennium-falcon-model-kit-20-pieces.jpg?v=1697294757"},{"product_id":"airfix-2024-release-1-72nd-scale-hms-iron-duke-preorder","title":"Airfix 1\/600th scale - HMS Iron Duke","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe mighty British warship HMS Iron Duke was a dreadnought battleship which represented the pinnacle of naval power when she entered service in late 1913.

Admiral Hipper Class Heavy Cruisers were characteristically larger than heavy cruisers from other countries, and the huge Prinz Eugen was elongated an additional 5 meters. With a displacement tonnage measuring at over 14,000tons this enormous German cruiser packed the firepower of four 20.3cm twin gun turrets for its main armament. In May of 1941 the Prinz Eugen participated in Operation Rheinubung to intercept trade ships in the Atlantic. On this mission she joined forces with the Battleship Bismarck to help sink the British Battle Cruiser Hood and inflict considerable damage on the British Battleship Prince of Wales. In February of 1942, the Prinz Eugen, together with the German battleships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau left their docks at Brest for Norway on an unexpected dash through the British Channel, in broad daylight. Known as Operation Cerberus, this was to be one of the riskiest, yet best prepared and best coordinated operations carried out by German forces in the Second World War. After arriving safely in German waters, Prinz Eugen was active in the strategic withdrawal from the Russian front, firing thousands of shells at encroaching Russian forces when she provided support for evacuation ships carrying German troops and civilians. One of the few German cruisers to survive World War II, the Prinz Eugen now rests in the warm waters of the Marshal Islands. After enduring two atomic bomb tests she lies capsized in the calm shallows of the Kwajelein Atoll.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTamiya presents a plastic model assembly kit of the Heavy German Battle Cruiser, Prinz Eugen.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/700 scale, total length: 303mm, total width: 31mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipment and armament faithfully recreated.
