The HMS Nelson was launched on 3 September 1925 as the type ship of the Nelson class and entered service in 1927. Like her sister ship, the HMS Rodney, the Nelson had three 40.6 cm triple gun turrets, which were positioned in the well-protected forward half of the ship (bow/midships). She was at times the flagship of the Royal Navy and initially served mostly together with her sister ship HMS Rodney. During the Second World War, the Nelson belonged to the Home Fleet and was involved in the search for various German warships. From 1941, she supported the Allied landings in North Africa and later the landing in Sicily. During the Normandy landings in the summer of 1944, she ran into two mines. After being repaired, she was deployed in the Pacific, then transferred to the reserves and scrapped in 1949. The TAMIYA kit model impresses with its accuracy of fit and attention to detail.
