PAPER MODEL KIT MILITARY FLEET EXPERIENCED GUNBOAT VESUVIUS OREL 181 Manufacturer: Orel (Ukraine) Scale: 1/200 Material: Paper Condition: New Number of sheets: 10 sheets of A4 USS Vesuvius - experienced gunboat (sometimes used the name "dynamite cruiser"). When construction was armed with three fixed pneumatic guns placed in the bow. Among them were thrown out with compressed air (70 atm.) Projectiles filled with wet pyroxylin. The ship was supposed to be used in combat with the coastal fortifications, as well as minesweepers: it was assumed that its missiles in an explosion in the water will destroy minefields. Experience has shown that the unique main ship's battery had significant drawbacks: the firing range was unsatisfactory, and the aiming method was difficult and inaccurate. "Vesuvius" participated in the Spanish-American War, in 1898, spent the bombing of Santiago de Cuba and carried out special assignments fleet commander, and also served as a messenger ship between Cuba and Florida.
