This is a great kit of a pretty prolific class of ship. The kit comes with options for several knox class frigates in the US navy, and several Balares class frigates in the Spanish navy (I think I’m spelling things correctly). It goes together pretty well, the instructions are pretty clear, and there are tons of reference photos available on the internet to help you out with accuracy. I didn’t notice any issues with the molding of the kit. Pretty much everything was nice and clean, no flashing, and only a couple of oddly placed pinholes (some were right on the side of highly visible vent ducts). Overall, this was a fun kit to build. Just be aware, tweezers are necessary for 1/700 scale kits!

Great value with plenty of detail and crisp moldings. I liked it so much I built it twice!

One of the cold war U. S. Navy Knots Class frigate. One that I had served on during that time. It was the USS E. Montgomery DE/FF 1087. These models are extremely hard to find for cold war ships.
