Trumpeter 05628 German Navy Aircraft Carrier DKM Peter Strasser 1/350 is an exceptionally detailed plastic model kit representing the unfinished German aircraft carrier from World War II. The DKM Peter Strasser was the second ship of the Zeppelin class, built at the renowned Germania shipyard in Kiel from 1938. It was named after Peter Strasser, the head of the German airship service during World War I. Due to internal disputes between the Kriegsmarine and the Luftwaffe, as well as Adolf Hitler's decision to redirect resources towards the development of U-boats, construction was halted and ultimately cancelled on March 26, 1940. Although the project was never completed, the ship remains a symbol of Germany's aspirations to develop carrier forces during World War II.
