 ModelWarships review
The HMS Amazon, commissioned in 1973, was the class-leader of the Type 21 Anti-submarine frigate.
Among the unique features of the Type 21, of which eight were eventually built, was the extensive use of aluminum in the superstructure to reduce the ships weight and its gasoline driven engines.
The decal sheet comes with the hull numbers for three ships in this class: HMS Amazon (F169), HMS Active (F171) and HMS Arrow (F173) as well as the helipad markings (which are triplicated for some unknown reason).
