1:35 M.A.S. 568 4a Torpedoboat avec équipage

Italeri M.A.S. 568 4a Torpedoboot 1:35 Kit captures the lean profile of an Italian motor torpedo boat in a format that gives the hull, deck fittings and crew real presence on the bench and in a finished display. The 1:35 scale gives the compact naval craft enough size for the cabin structure, railings and deck areas to read clearly once assembled. This assembly kit is based on the M.A.S. 500 class, the fast gasoline-engine boats used during the Second World War as motor torpedo craft and anti-submarine platforms for depth charge dropping. The source subject is described with a top speed of 40 knots and armament of 2 450 mm torpedoes, giving the model a strong historical identity rooted in small, rapid naval warfare. Decal options shown for M.A.S. 563 classe 500 3a Serie and M.A.S. 568 classe 500 4a Serie add alternate finishing routes within the same class. The included crew helps turn the finished boat into a more complete scene rather than a standalone vessel. With 600 minutes stated for assembly, the build suits model makers who enjoy taking time over painting, markings and deck detail. Paints, cement and tools are required separately. Once completed, the boat fits naturally into a naval collection, a maritime diorama or a shelf display that focuses on fast patrol and torpedo craft from the Second World War.
