Heller 57094 Starter Kit Escorteurs Rapides E 52 Collection Historique 1/400

Contains glue • Brush • Main colours To correct the detected errors of the fast E 50 glider ships of the type "Le Corse", the successor models under the designation "E 52" adopted an inverted arrangement of the nevertheless same armament of three 57 mm gun turret double guns/60 ACAD remote controls. 952, two 20mm Oerlikon, four torpedo tube treble sets of 550mm and a Bofors Mle 54 six-speed rocket launcher of 375mm. The torpedo tubes were now placed on the main bridge behind the chimney and the rocket launchers were in front of the 57mm twin sets. A combined surveillance radar DRBV 22A replaced the DRBV 20A of its predecessor ships. The ships ordered in 1952 (i.e. E 5 to E 11) benefited from an "offshore" financing such as the DE 1007, DE 1008, DE 1009, DE 1010, DE 1011, DE 1012 and DE 1013 of the US Navy classification.
