SKU: TR05370 | Brand: Trumpeter | Product: Trumpeter 1/350 DKM O Class Battlecruiser Barbarossa Plastic Model Kit The O-class battlecruiser originated from Nazi Germany's ambitious "Z Plan" designed to replace the Deutschland-class battlecruisers. Armed with three twin 380mm main gun turrets identical to those mounted on Bismarck, the O-class featured a distinctive three-axis propulsion system. Twin steam turbines powered the outer shafts while a central MAN diesel engine drove the middle shaft, enabling the vessel to achieve 33.5 knots while meeting extended range requirements. Conceived as a high-speed Atlantic commerce raider, construction was scheduled to begin simultaneously at Kiel and Wilhelm shipyards in 1939, but the program was canceled by year's end.
