[quote="Peter Rathgeb"]Why, why, why... do I always get interested in the more exotic subjects? The Russian WWII Navy is at least partially covered by Combrig. The Russian ships of the Russo-Japanese War are covered by quite a lot of kits, also mainly Combrig. Since a while, I am interested in the Russian and Soviet Caspian Flotilla before and after WWI (ca. 1911-1923). To build the gunboat sisters Kars and Ardagan (later Lenin and Krasniy Azerbeidzhan, resp.) is possible thanks to Combrig. What is missing are the other participants of the Caspian (later Wolga-Caspian) Flotilla, like the Astrabad (1st pic), or one of the destroyers, e.g.: Ukrayna (1905-1920) a.k.a. Karl Marx (1920) a.k.a. Ukrayna (1920-1923) a.k.a. Bakinskiy Rabozhiy (1923-after WWII) (2nd pic). I have found a couple of pics in the internet, mainly of the gunboats. But I would like to build the Ukrayna. Does anybody know if one of the many Combrig RJW destroyers could be converted to the Ukrayna without too much surgery? (I am no good surgeon) Thanks and cheers, Peter[/quote]
