Developed in the second half of the 19th century, the Ironclads were intended to negate the vulnerability of wooden warships to explosive or incendiary shells. The resulting warships were steam-propelled and sported hulls protected by iron or steel armour plates. They were used extensively by both the Union and Confederate navies in the American Civil War. Supplied unassembled and unpainted in kit form with full instructions. Any models or accessories shown are for scale purposes only and are not included. |
