Boat Vosper MTB 74 and Crew 1/35 Italeri

Model boat Vosper MTB 74 and Crew in scale 1/35 of Italeri reference 5624.

In March 1942, a British amphibious attack was launched by the Royal Navy and commandos against the Large Dry Dock at Saint Nazaire, occupied France. The operation was a success and the dry dock was damaged and rendered unusable until the end of the war. A key role was assigned to the MTB 74 torpedo boat. It had been specifically modified by the Royal Navy shipyards to house torpedo tubes on its fored deck and install silencers on the exhausts to reduce noise. The mission of MTB 74 was to hit anti-submarine nets, then launch torpedoes to block the dry dock door. It achieved its goals but, on the way back, it was hit and sank.
This kit makes it possible to reproduce the MTB 74 in the configuration of this last historical mission. It also includes seven crew member minifigures and various complementary accessories.
