Airfix 1/600 HMS Fearless Scaled Plastic Model Kit
One of the most famous British ships of the post-war period, HMS Fearless was a modern Amphibious Assault Ship (LPD — Landing Platform Dock), a development of the vessels that proved so crucial during the D-Day landings. The first purpose-built ship of her type used by the Royal Navy, Fearless also had the distinction of being the last steam-powered surface ship supplied to the force. Fearless and her sister ship HMS Intrepid provided Britain with an incredibly flexible and highly mobile assault force, able to replenish at sea and therefore capable of steaming to military hotspots anywhere in the world. Her internal vehicle decks could carry 400 troops and their equipment — plus up to fifteen Challenger tanks — or up to 700 troops if no tanks were embarked. HMS Fearless played a significant role during the Falklands War as part of the British Naval Task Force, acting as a command ship for the operation.
