A BUILDER'S PROPOSAL MODEL FOR A LIGHT FRIGATE BY VOSPE

Item Details

Description

A BUILDER'S PROPOSAL MODEL FOR A LIGHT FRIGATE BY VOSPER THORNYCROFT, CIRCA 1970
the carved and laminated hull with detachable stern section, sonar, twin propellers and rudders, finished in grey, red below the waterline and green decks with fittings including anchor with chain and winch, quick-firing guns, torpedo tubes, bridge with communication tower behind, ventilators, anti-missile system, speed boats, life rafts and helicopter, mounted on two turned brass columns on wooden display base with maker's plate for Vosper Thornycroft, Perspex cover, overall measurements -- 17 x 51 x 13in. (43 x 129.5 x 33cm.)

The purpose of the detachable stern is to demonstrate the versatility of this craft to potential clients, with alternatives probably including mine laying types etc. The profile of this model conforms quite closely to the Amazon Class, three (of eight) were built by VT but relied on aluminium to lighten the vessel - a flaw savagely exposed in the Falklands War where two of the class (Ardent and Antelope) were sunk.

This lot will be available for viewing at Imperial Road.
