Over the years we have collected a number of type 45s with a variety of faults and now they are looking for new homes and harbours.
We have just been sorting some out and clearly they have spent much time at sea. The MOD planned for 12 Darings but only built 6. so here's a chance to produce the other six, D38-43 with names of your own choosing.
So here are a trio which may be any combination of numbers/names.
Unboxed, many of these have faulty and corroded paintwork in places, PARTICULARLY NEAR THE STERN LOUVRES which is why the main photo shows this.
About 5 inches in length and broad in the beam. 8500tons in real life.
Triang Code P 755
