MK1 Design MS-35018 German Catapult Set 1/350 – photo-etched parts set for German World War II warship models

MK1 Design MS-35018 German Catapult Set 1/350 is a high-quality upgrade set dedicated to German ship models in 1/350 scale, especially from the World War II period. This set enables the detailed reconstruction of aircraft catapults used on German battleships, cruisers, and other large Kriegsmarine vessels, such as the Bismarck, Tirpitz, Scharnhorst, or Prinz Eugen. These catapults were widely used for launching Arado Ar 196 reconnaissance seaplanes, giving German ships a significant advantage in sea reconnaissance and observation.

The presented set is produced using precise photo-etching technology, ensuring remarkable detail and realistic scale—particularly important for 1/350 scale models. The parts are made from thin, deformation-resistant brass sheet, which allows for a very delicate and faithful representation of the original. The complete set includes all the necessary catapult details—such as the launching platform, rails, and small mechanical components, impossible to recreate from plastic.
