Revell Viking Ship Sailing ship model Assembly kit 1:50

From the end of the eighth century AD, Vikings originating from Scandinavia regularly appeared in Great Britain and on the European mainland on raiding expeditions in their Longships. These highly sea worthy fighting ships of around 20 metres in length had a bow at both ends, enabling them to beach and/or launch in either direction. The shallow draught of only 1.5 metres also gave the Vikings the option of sailing or rowing up inland waterways and rivers, allowing them to raid areas deep in the hinterland. With these fast and very manoeuvrable fighting ships also known as Dragon Boats, the Vikings ventured as far away as Iceland, Greenland and even North America, as excavations at settlements have proven.
