US NAVY Amphibious Ready Group 1/350 Scale
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 тра 2018
- This is an entire Amphibious Ready Group in 1/350 scale. These are the US Marines major Amphibious Units that allow them to attack and take enemy shores.
They do it with a combination of Landing craft (LCAC-Landing Craft Air Cushion and LCU-Landing Craft Utility) for Amphibious Assault, as well as Air Assault using Osprey, Chinook and Sea Stallion helicopters.
The Main amphibious part of each of these groups (including this one) consists of:
1 - LHD, Wasp (or America) Class Amohibious assault ship
1 - LPD, San Anotni Class Amphibious ship
1 - LSD, Harpers Ferry or Whidbely Island Landing Ship Dock
The Defense of the group is handled by two frigates (in this case two Indpendence Class LCS vessels), two destroyers (two Arleigh Burke class AEGIS destroyers) , one Cruiser (A Ticonderoga class AEGIS cruiser) and one nuclear attack submarine (in this case a FLight III Advanced class Loas Angeles nuclear attack submarine).
This group specifically consists of the following. all in 1/350 scale:
LHD-7, USS Iwo Jima, Wasp class by Gallery Models
LPD-21, USS New York San Antonio Class by Galley Models
LSD-49, USS Harpers Ferry, Harpers Ferry Class by Orange Hobby
CG-53, USS Mobile Bay Aegis Ticonderoga by Dragon models
DDG-82, USS Lassen, Burkle Flight IIA by Trumpeter
DDG-68, USS The Sullivans Burke Flight II by Dragon Models
LSD-2 Independence, Independence Class by Trumpeter
LSD-4, USS Coronado Independence Class by Bronco Models
SSN-64, USS Boise, Advanced LA Class submarine, Dragon Models
These are very powerful groups and the US Navy has ten separate full groups. They have four available at all times and could surge up to seven if required.
Be sure to see all of my various groupings of 1/350 scale models.
Thanks for your time. - Наука та технологія
Deployed on the harpers ferry 2013, it was us, the boxer, and the New Orleans. Love seeing someone built a model of my baby girl!
Thanks for shariing this. It's a good fleet and gives me ideas for projects as well.
Great video, wonderful to see all the models out on the table! Well done.
@JJ Model Making I'm subscribed to you love your vids
Thank you bro you make it hella easy to explain to people were never rocking lonely in the ocean were secure af
Thank you for sharing Sir.
That is some really great work.
This is awesome, nice job mate.
Dude you did an amazing job on all of these. I would not be able to do any of these for my life. I congratulate you good sir
Thank you for those kind words. But each of the kits from Trumpeter, Dragon, etc. have great instructions and very well done plastic parts, and if you buy and use the photo etch add on kits available for them with the railing and various instruments you can make them look just as nice. Just take yur time and be patient and you can make them just as good if not better.
Jeff Head Yeah no problem. I just think you did an amazing job making these models, I just didn’t really get the hang of photo etch until now, so I have about 5 models without photo etch and 6 with photo etch.
Jeff!! This amphib group looks SUPER!! Reminds me of the time I would escort these ships, in the 80's, with my FFG's!!
I helped construct LHD & USS IWO JIMA.
Congrats and thanks for your efforts and service. In my engineering career I have worktd on a number of DOD/US Military projects as well.
My grandpa was on the Uss Cvn 65 enterprise
How long did it take you to put that LHD together? And What is the name of the Company who makes them
Fantastic visual explanation of these ARG. It helps explain it very well. Answered all my questions, thankyou.
Thanks. We, as a nation, have invested heavily in this ability and it has been put to good use on numerous occassions. It is something that no one on earth does as well...not even close.
The Red Chinese are however trying to duplicate a lot of what we are doing...and they have made some strong strides over the last 10-15 years. See: ua-cam.com/video/4tqs3SKeDt0/v-deo.html That's what they have put together so far nd those LPDs they have are very similar in function and form to the San Antonios.
I served on the USS Germantown that hull swapped with the original USS Harpers Ferry. A great ship.
Thank you for your service and Bravo Zulu! These are awesome shiops and now they have decided that the LX(R) which will be the more modern follow on to the LSD vessels will be a ship based on the same hull as the San Antonio class LPD, only revised to fill the LSD function. They will be larger and even more capable...making the US ARGs of the future carry on the great tradition of making the US Navy and US MArine Corps available whenever and wher ever needed to protect our nation.
God bless you Jeff
WOW you are amazing!
Fantastic work Jeff! Really looks amazing!
Please refresh my game
I also helped reconstruct areas of the LPD USS New Yorkafter the original shipyard who constructed it (Avondale) made numerous errors during construction. I worked at Ingalls/Northrop Grumman Ship Systems ( Now Huntington Ship Building).
Impressive, most impressive. I have been searching this past week for just such an alignment of ships and yours pop up when least expected. Thank you.
One additional ship I recommend to your Amphibious Carrier Strike Force is An Expeditionary Transfer Dock (ESD), formerly the Mobile Landing Platform (MLP), is designed to be a semi-submersible, flexible, modular platform providing the US Navy with the capability to perform large-scale logistics movements such as the transfer of vehicles and equipment from sea to shore. These ships significantly reduce the dependency on foreign ports and provide support in the absence of port availability. The class also houses a sub-class variant called the Expeditionary Mobile Base (ESB), formerly the Afloat Forward Staging Base (AFSB). Most aircraft carrier captains start off commanding logistic replenishment ships. Logistics is key.
Awesome job, I am striving for something similar in building my own Carrier Strike Force/Group or other. Thanks for the explanation of the elements of the force and each ship's primary role and weaponry.
I love your collections....they are all good looking..and realistic in view....
Excelente Trabajo
Tried to do the same thing once upon a time with 1/700 scale IJN and US Navy. I figured, "Let's re-stage the Battle of Midway!".
That sure is a nice collection.
Awesome job Jeff! One thing to comment on and its really the only thing I could find, LCAC's never come out bow first from a well deck. That is entirely because they can't back up into the well deck with any ease. The LCAC's alway launch from the well deck stern first. Same goes for LCU's. AAV's do in fact launch head first though and they have to because the jet drive doesnt work in reverse on the AAV.
Well, hey have the capability to back up. They either have to back up going out, or coming in. Usually, they come in straight ahead, because there is little room and the driver will have a better view coming into the well deck. But then he has to back out...and they can and do. But you are correct, normally they will pull into the well deck bow first...but they are capable of backing up, and could, if they had to, back in. They have small entrance openings on each end of the LCAC so that vehicles can enter either way, either from the bow or stern.
Please do a video of all of your ships together and love what you’re doing great job
Very Cool!
You have an incredible hobby there Jeff - BRAVO ZULU! I did my Midshipman cruise on LST (Barnstable County and the Manatoic)
Thanks. I have a LOT of 1/350 scale vessels from most all of the modern navies. Enough to make CSGs of all modern nations that have them, plus SAGs and single ships from a number of other nations who may not have any carrier. I am slowly making videos of them. Here's one of my play lists that include quite a few to date, but I have probably 4X this number of ships: ua-cam.com/play/PLvVdtlVkqA3A4PexXbhqprod-THpXcEcZ.html
BTW, thank you for your service. My Dad was ombat US Navy officer in the PTO and my son in law is career navy. In my carreer I worked for DOD contractors for the frst 20 years, and then for the US Bureau of Reclamation for the last 15 years. Bravo Zulu.Looks like the new LSDs are going to be made off of the same hull as the San Deigos, just configured differently. So the Whidbey Island class and the Harper's Ferry Class will be replaced by the LX(R) which will be the new LSD and it will be built on the San Antonio hull, but configured differently to fit the LSD role.
great work. warm greatings from germany
That is a very impressive fleet of model ships. I love the paint job on all of them. Even I couldn't do better than that.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome! BZ!
Awesome I plan to do that when I'm done with my iwo jima.
You can see my full Iwo Jima, 1/350 scale build here on Fine Scale Modeling, step by step: cs.finescale.com/fsm/modeling_subjects/f/7/t/163616.aspx Good luck. I enjoyed that build a lot.
Very cool Jeff, I just subscribed to your channel. Keep up the great videos.
🇦🇺 what a great model set 👍🏾
I have one uss enterprise in 1/700 scale, and your video inspired me to do uss iwo jima and uss New York but in 1/700 scale,
Because i Don't have money for 1/350 scale models.
Wow those models look great! I've only done 1:700 scale ships but this makes me want to try something a little bigger! Great models and a great video!
Thanks for the kind words. The 1/350 scale models have a LOT more details and are fun to build...they also cost more and take up more room. But I have been doing them for years. Please consider looking at all the other videos I have out...and perhaps even subscribe if you are so inclined because I will be adding more.
@@JeffHead-IdahoUSA I definitely subscribed, model building is an underappreciated art-form and I can appreciate someone who can make such nice looking models! Makes me hopeful my models will get to this caliber someday!
You get a like just for all that work.
I worked at Ingalls shipyard, Pascagoula MS. when the Iwo was built. We also repaired the USS Cole after she was attacked.
Outstanding...and thanks for your service. My career has been spent doing engineering and design work for a number of US weapons systems (A-7E, MLRS, NSSN which became the Virginia Class, THAAADS, etc.) , and then the last fourteen-fifteen years of it working fdirectly for the US government designing security measures.
Sounds very intersting and rewarding. Thank you
Those look absolutely amazing! Very well done. I got the Dragon Areigh Burke too. Still need an escort carrier though. I'm looking foreword to the day someone releases a model of the Gerald R. Ford class.
I took a Trumpeter USS Nimitz model in 1/350 and completely rebuilt it to be a 1/350 Ford class, the USS Enterprise CVN-80. Take a look. I think you will like it. Here: ua-cam.com/video/q04Hy8CQjC8/v-deo.html I also have it on a two carrier US Navy CSG here: ua-cam.com/video/2EfoVwP4Kp0/v-deo.html
I felt that so hard at 3:03 it’s happened to me before luckily nothing broke
Wow, this is freaking awesome, you wouldn't want that lot coming towards your country with bad intentions
I feel that ouch, when a model fell off haha! Those vulnerable parts might break.. XD
Anyway nice collection!
Parabéns!
São belos navios!
Went to sub school in groton (on a surface ship now, cg-73) if I remember correctly, the uss Boise hasnt been able to dive for 5 years
Too bad we don’t have the old Iowa class softening up the beachheads. Marines love the big guns.
Beautiful modeling work.
Amen to that! And too bad we let the Obama admin completely neuter the ZUmwalt class and also cut off the great R&D that was producing both the Long Range gun projectiles and, it appears, most of the rail gun research as well. A real shame but perhaps now we will get them back. Those three ZXumwalts can still serve an unbelievably critical purpose in test bedding those high tech weapons we are researching, and then serving as a test bed for the new CG(X). I hope they do.
2nd, like that little Modle Jeff.
BZ on your ARG group, I was on an earlier Class LPD and filled in for Medical personnel on LSTs and LSDs.
I’m currently working on the crew bringing the LSD 46 TORTUGA back to life from future decommission
Cool models 👌 did each ship is different class of ship did u get to choose the role of the ship get to choose what you want on its deck that really cool ASW, DDG, AAW, ASUW, ect I love all our class of ship especially the one from ww2 SSN, BB, DD, CG, and CAV
Absolutely love it. They look great. I would like to get into this wonderful hobby. Do you recommend a certain brand for 1/350 scale? Also, any brands to stay away from? (i.e. buy Toyota, stay away from Fiat). I've done some modeling with military personnel figures, but as a Navy guy I want to start doing ships. I retire at the end of this tour and looking for a few hobbies.
It looks like the 16 cell vls is a planned upgrade at this point.
Very nice group, sir! Thanks for the tour. May I interject that those are "Arleigh Burke" class destroyers, not Aegis-class. They and the Ticonderoga-class cruisers feature the Aegis battle management system. Expert work on each model!
Yes...I know they are Burke class. Both of the ones there I call out in the commnets above where I describe the video. I ccall them there, correctly what they are:
DDG-82, USS Lassen, Burkle Flight IIA
DDG-68, USS The Sullivans Burke Flight IIA
The first one is from Trumpeter models. It is a more detailed kit and herefore a little more expensive. The other is by Dragon models. Not quite as detailed, but a very decent model just the same.
Very nice models sir, i wish i could make my own scale models. Ive dreamt of building all South american dreadnoughts in a large scale some day
Well, there are a number of model makers who are making 1/700 and 1/350 dreadnoughts of all sorts. I concentrate mainly on modern ships, though I have built some WW II US Navy ships, particularly my USS Hornet and USS Enterprise group for the raid on Tokyo and the USS Texas. You can see my USS Texas dreadnought video here: ua-cam.com/video/tF0zpNYcCT4/v-deo.html
@@JeffHead-IdahoUSA yeah i know, but theyre very expensive, and im 15 so i cant find a job to buy these, soon enough tho maybe. Great video either way!
Good day sir! I love your collections, Where did you ordered this sir and how much each of it?
Be great if they did an AOR replenishment ship
wooooooah! Thats a nice view! How long did it take to assembly and paint all those ships? I am planning on doing some models in 1/350 ( go like50+ in 1/700 and 1/400) and I have chosen to do modern US Navy, Russian Navy and mayby some ships from my country. Hope it will looks at least half awesome like Yours!
1/350 is by far the most detailed and my fvorite scale. but they are more expensive.
well, everything's a better value than 1/72 armor... anyway great build and informative, i was in the dark about most of that
Saludos. Un material completo, tienes una pequeña flota. Felicidades. Quiero armar algo así. que tiempo te llevo?
Hey can I ask a question when and where did you get the USS Mobile Bay ?
I really want a Ticonderoga class CG with VLS cells but most are only armed with the mk26 launchers
I was on the USS Austin (LPD --4) do they make a model of that ship? What company did these kits come from?
I bet that takes many years to complete the whole set of fleet.
Btw how many days or weeks it takes to complete the ship and also aircraft carrier?
But seriously im so jealous that you complete the fleet. Man its time to save money again.
Hey Jeff, nice work. You replied to a viewers question by saying you can get some models cheaper in China. Could you tell me the link or website I should use? Thank you
I do a lot of buying on eBay and just search ofr the type of class and us 1/350 scale...and then watch for the cheapest prices and where they are coming from (ie China) An outfit called LuckyModel has a decent online store front from China. Here in the states, Free Time Hobbies is probably the best. also from Japan Hobby Search at www.1999.co.jp/eng
Very Cool, Thanks You for the tour. How long did it take you to build all of these models?
I've been building on them since being diagnosed with serious and very rare spinal bone cancer in 2009. I was diagnosed as terminal in 2016 and they gave me 3-4 months...but I keep myself buys and keep building and doing work for our church. The Lord will take me when He is ready...and I am fine with that.
@@JeffHead-IdahoUSA - Mr. Head I also have cancer, for the second time, so i think I can relate to you. I wish you the very best and may God bless you. The models are beautiful, thank you for displaying them.
What color did you paint the harpers ferry as the base color and and what did you paint the deck and by the way love the channel
I have a chart I use for all of my US 1/350 scale vessels...and other nations too. It's up on Fine Scale Modeler, here: cs.finescale.com/fsm/modeling_subjects/f/7/t/170109.aspx
I was on the USS OGDEN LPD 5. Is there any way to send me info on how to get a model of her.
Nice video and more importantly nice modeling. As you may know, the DDGs aren't Aegis class, they're Burke class.
Well, of course they are BUrke Class, but they are also AEGIS vessels. AEGIS covers a number of classes. Burkes (which are by far the largest class...far bigger in terms of numbers than any other class and perhaps all other AEGIS ships puit together. The Ticos are AEGIS vessels. Kongos, Atagos, F-100s, Hobarts, Nansen, etc. etc. for the various nations that hade adopted them.
Where can you get these DDG 82 is my first ship and want to get my parents one of these
“Resolved, That two battalions of Marines be raised consisting of one colonel, two lieutenant-colonels, two majors, and other officers, as usual in other regiments; that they consist of an equal number of privates with other battalions; that particular care be taken that no persons be appointed to office, or enlisted into said battaions but such as are good seamen, or so acquainted with maritime affairs as to be able to serve with advantage by sea when required; that they be enlisted and commissioned to serve for and during the present War with Great Britain and the colonies, unless dismissed by order of Congress; that they be distinguished by names of First and Second Battalions of American Marines, and that they be considered as part of the number which the Continental Army before Boston is ordered to consist of.”
Semper Fidelis
We’re you also stationed at mayport naval station?
Yeah i served on the Wasp till my honorable discharge
Where did you get these from, can you link the item if you remember where you got it from or can find it?
Search for them at eBay, Free Time Hobbies, on Shapeways, a 3D printing mall (at Dutch Naval Miniatures, SNAFU, Kokoda Trails, Echoco, etc), and at Easy Hobbies, Lucky Models, and other online Model STores. Search on Google for 1/350 scale US Navy MOdels. Good luck.
Where's the support/supply/oiler?
물에 띄우면 진짜 멋있겠다
I like Tamiya.
Where do you buy them?
Could anyone please tell me where can I buy one of those model ships. Thanks!
The models are all in 1/350 scale. You can get plastic injected molded model of the KHD-7, USS Iwo Jima from Gallery Models, Trumpeter, REvell, and others. You can get the 1/350 Shidbey Island only from Orange Hobby and it is a Rsin Model and a little more spendy, You can get the 1/350 Injected mplded plastic LPD-21, USS New York )and also several other Sna Antonio cl;ass LPDs from Bronco Models, Gallery Models, Trumpeter, Revell and others, you can get the 1/350 scale Burke DDGs from Trumpeter and Dragon models, uoui can get the 1350 scale Freedom and Independence LCS (FFG) models from Bronco and Trumpeter and others, you can get the SSN subs from numerous sources as well like Hobby Boss, Cyber Hobby, Trumpeter, and others. Online you can find these at eBay, FreeTime Hobbies, Easy Hobbies, Cyber Line, Hobby Link and many, manu thoers. Good Luck.
Where can we buy these at?
to bad they retired the expeditionary group the Amphibious ready group is just LHD LPD LSD or the L's I think the EG was smart and gave the Navy flexibility but apparently the LHD doesn't have the Comand and control to command the Cruisers Destroyers LCS/FFG or SSN but I think it can and should be remedied just no will to
3:03 GODZILLA!!!!!
They have model kits for these ?
YEs. In 1/350 scale. Most from trumpeter but some from others like Orange Hobbies, Dragon, etc.
How can I get my own model of one of the Arleigh Burke class destroyers and how much would the price be
Trumpeter makes the model. The best on site place in the States to get them, as in a store, is Free Time Hobbies. Search for Trumperter 1/350 USS LAssen. Or you can search for the same on eBay and see if you can get it cheaper. There are places in China that will sell them for about $35 with little or no shipping...but then they take 2-3 weeks to arrive. Free Time Hobbies will be a little more, but you will get it in a few days.
Okay Thankyou as long as I can get one from Australia I’m happy
And what paints should I use
Well, you can get them on eBay, or online at places Like FreeTime Hobbies or Squadron. Dragon Models are a little lestt expensive, perhaps 35+ dollars, but not as sdetailed. Trumpeters are more detailed and a little more expensive 40-50. Howevr, on eBay, if yu buy one from one of the China manufacturers or sales places, you will pay less, but then wiat2-3 weeks for it to get to you. Good luck!
LSD harper ferry from Blue Series?
No, this is an Orange Hobby model in 1/350 scale. It is a resin model and not plastic. More expensive, but very well done.
Where did you get the LSD-49 Harper's Ferry?
Orange Hobby models makes a 1/350 model of the Harper's Ferry in 1/350 scale. Not cheap, but well worth it and very detailed and well done.
I served on the Harper's Ferry back in 2013-2014. Ive always wanted a model of this ship. How much is the model?
Both Littoral Class ships are being taken out of service and discontinued because of major deck cracking and weak engineering at certain hull stress points . Both Class ships should be gone by 2025.
The other Independence Class Littoral has been taken out hahaha
Actually the Indpendence class is building out to 19 unit, as is the Freedom class. Then they will build the "FF" which I believe will be Freedom class. Then they will build 28+ of the new FFG(X) which are significantly uparmed and larger Freedom class FFGs. But there will be 38 LCS, and all of them will be uparmed with 8 Naval strike Missiles (Raytheon and Konigborg just won the bid) a will the 20 FFs. The FFG(X) will also carry eight NSMs. This will effectively give the US Navy 70+ FFGs. When all is said and done there are going to be close to 100 Burke DDGs. Then you have the three Zumwalts which will be followed by 22+ CG(X) vessels so that any embarked CSG or ARGs can have one at the heart of their defense. So the US Navy will embark strong Carrier Strike Groups for the next 50+ years as the Ford class is built and replaces the Nimitz class one for one for theall ten vessels.
@101327 Never said one had been selected, just said I expect the Lockheed entry to probably win. Also, the LCS was cooked up by people who new very little about the reality of war fighting, about logistics, maintenance, repair...particularly during a fight...and on and on. At least we are finally now getting the types of addons to the hulls in terms of additional weaponry, particularly the OTH missiles, better sensors, and a few more other items that will make them more relevant and at lelast capable of having a hope to defend themselves. I expect the Independence variety will be more associated with PhibRons and counter mine activities, while the Freedom class (if they add everything they have committed to) will be helpful for CSGs...but the best hope there will be the FFGX, if, again, the follow through and give the Navy an honest to goodness mutli-mission, fighting frigate.
Hahahaha he Godzilla that thing!!!
Freedom Class will be discontinued after Ships being built at present are finished . No new ships will be built.
Now put some fireworks on that,, simulating they were been attack
Hello how can I get this made for me
Well, I would be happy to build them for you...but it would be expensive by the time the models and the after market kits, and then my time were taken into account. LEty me know your email and I will contact you and give you an estimate.
Oooppps. Lol
Those LCS is the weakest link in that group
Well, the upgrade to the FF version will help, but we will have to wait on the FFG(X) to really address it. I believe now we will get what we have needed ever since the neutered and then decommissioned the OHP FFGs.
They're the stopgap measure as of now, and they aren't supposed to fulfill a true escort role. They're pretty much designed as large Coast Guard cutters that fight pirates, so they're nowhere near as strong as a dedicated frigate.
@@pacificstatesofamerica The uparmed vessels, particularly the Freedom, will be used and easily can be used in an escort role. The "FF"s will even be beter. The new FFG(X) though will be the true new US Navy Frigates. But, we will have about 38 LCS (19 of each) which will get uograded AMS (The NSM which is a heck of a good LR anti-surface missile), and they will all have SeaRAM and decent ASW capabilities. What they will not have is any decent area AAW coverage. The FF's will have some, but the FFG(X) will v able to carry up to 64 ESSMs for out to mid-range coverage...and an ability (which they should just make the rule) to add another 16 VLS cells. They should just make them with 32. Anyhow, the FFG(X) will have very good anti-surface and anti-shipping, very goos ASW, and decent AAW out to mid-range. On the order of 28 of them will be built. When we add those 28 to the 20 FFs and the 38 LCS< then the US will have a whole lot of frigate sized vessels with various levels of armament so they can have a heck of a lot of capability and mix and match to allow them to do anything from Mine warfare, to anti-sub, to anti-air, to anti-shipping, to show the flag, to se lane patrol, to escort duties. That will be over 80- frigate sized vessels. coupled with close to 100 Burkes by that time, and the 24 or so CG(X) which will ultimately be built, the US will remain very strong...not to mention 50+ very good SSNs.
LHD is an Amphibious Assult Ship Kool, and Iwo Jima is an LHD, just saying
But for real, Iwo Jima is an LHD, There is no USS LHD buddy.
Where’s the LCC
Two Independence class LCS are located to the starboard and port side of the formation on the aft side of the formation.
Jeff Head not those I’m talking about the Blue Ridge Class command ship that LCC
My bad. I have not seen a 1/350 scale command ship. If I could find one I would build it.
@@MegaWildanimal Yes, I know which you are talking about...but there are no 1/350 scale kits for them that I am aware of...or I would build them.
@Sinjinbin 64 As they LCS vessels are upgraded to the FF configuration, they will be used in such positions. Particularly the Independence class for the ARGs. They have a flight deck that is much lager and can carry more troops and help is special operations around the peripheral of the land battle space, they can perform good ASW work in defense of the ARG or ESG, and they can perform mine clearing operations in preparation for the landings. So, while they have not been fully outfitted and ramped up with all of their capabilities yet...they are coming. The Freedom class will be more suited, one it is up-armed and upgraded to the FF scenario, for ASW protection for SAGs and CSGs. There are going to be 19-20 of each of thee ships, and they will be used. Then the 20-28 FFG(X) vessels will be in a position to better help in the highest threat environments for both roles. But make no mistake, they can and will be used in those roles as their policies and procedures are ramped up to take advantage of their full range of capabilities...and particularly as they are up-armed to be able to accomplish them. That is going to take some time...but we will have the numbers, the weapons, and the minds to take full advantage of them. Thank goodness we got out from the Obama admins light naval thinkers and were able to make such an uproar about their initial capabilities to get the needed changes funded and started instituting.
Where can I buy these at?
Here is where I got each of the models in 1/350 scale shown in the video:
