DescriptionThe German battleship Bismarck was one of two Bismarck-class battleships reconstructed by the German Navy during the Second World War. The ship entered into an engagement with two British vessels, resulting in the sinking of the British battlecruiser, HMS Hood. This prompted a strong response from the Allied forces, with the Royal Navy sending dozens of warships after the Bismarck. A few days later, the vessel was critical hit by torpedoes deployed by bombers from a British carrier. The next morning, two British battleships and two heavy cruisers caught up with the Bismarck and she was heavily damaged in the engagement – forcing her crew to scuttle her.This lovely metal 3D puzzle kit from Piececool is aimed at older kids and adults – coming with 207 pieces it’s slightly more complex than simpler kits but you get a wonderful recreation of a Bismarck-class battleship.
