Victory didn’t come cheaply, with 258 British servicemen killed and another 777 wounded, while Argentina suffered 649 killed and 1068 wounded. One of the worst British losses was that of HMS Sheffield (D80). This Type 42 guided missile destroyer was part of the UK task force sent to the Falkland Islands, and was hit by an Exocet missile fired from an Argentine jet fighter on May 4. The ship was set ablaze and it eventually foundered on May 10, the first Royal Navy ship to be sunk in action for almost 40 years. Twenty crewmen were lost in the missile attack. On the 25th anniversary of the Falklands War, Dragon has re-launched the HMS Sheffield as a 1/700 scale Premium Edition kit. Commemorating the ship that was lost, the model is fitted out exactly as it appeared during that conflict. As is usual for a Premium Edition release, the model is lavishly supplied with a range of new parts to enhance detail and the modeler’s build experience. There are numerous photo-etched parts to improve detail and add realism e.g. antennas, handrails, helicopter rotor blades. While HMS Sheffield may have been taken by surprise by two Argentine Super Étendard fighters, this new model from Dragon offers a much more pleasant surprise for model ship fans. This vessel has been brought up to the most modern kit standards, plus it remembers an important event in recent Royal Navy history. <LI>SKU: DML7071 <LI>Ordering History: 6-D6 <LI>Date First Stocked: 10/30/2007 Other products in the category <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category17" TITLE="Naval">Naval</A> / <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category43" TITLE="Kits">Kits</A> / <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category172" TITLE="1/400 Scale or Smaller">1/400 Scale or Smaller</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product16723 TITLE="1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007">1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007</A> -- 1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product5710 TITLE="1:550 Imex MS Toyama Container Ship #882">1:550 Imex MS Toyama Container Ship #882</A> -- 1:550 Imex MS Toyama Container Ship #882 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product8186 TITLE="1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001">1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001</A> -- 1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product175 TITLE="1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043">1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043</A> -- 1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product176 TITLE="1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060">1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060</A> -- 1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product11970 TITLE="1:700 Dragon H.M.S.
