This week I cast off from the new Phalanx’s mould and the old 30mm gun mould.


Once they have been painted up I’ll post a pic.

Its surprising how the steps forward and backwards are just as common for ships that were built over the last 150 years as for a ship the navy are still having built! The pages of this fine forum are filled with examples of differences and alterations made because references turned out to be odd or different.


You have done a lovely job on the various mechanisms David. The mission bay system especially deserves mention!

Hi Ian,


Thanks for your positive reply, I never built a model so far ahead of the real prototype. Yes the reworking items is a pain but still fun collating info.


I’m hoping that the BAE Builders will be doing sea trials during the fourth quarter of this year so more pics.🙏
