After conversion to an anti-aircraft cruiser in 1939, it mainly operated in the Mediterranean Sea. She participated, among others, in the dramatic evacuation of refugees from Bordeaux in June 1940. During this mission, HMS Calcutta collided with the destroyer Fraser. Her service ended when she was sunk by German Ju-88 bombers on June 1, 1941, north of Alexandria during the Battle of Crete.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      The model offered includes not only standard plastic parts, but also a precise photo-etched parts sheet, enabling the accurate representation of even the smallest details—such as railings, ladders, and special superstructure details. The kit does not include glue or paints, allowing you to select your favorite modeling products according to your own preferences. \n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic model ship kit.\u003cbr\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eRecommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e We recommend this model to intermediate and advanced modelers interested in WWII warships, as well as collectors of the British fleet.
