1/35 USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) Standard Double Bitt Set (10pcs)

1/35 USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) Standard Double Bitt Set (10pcs)

Complete the main deck mooring stations of your "Garage Destroyer" with the meticulously engineered 1/35 Scale USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) Standard Double Bitt Set. Unlike traditional rounded bollards, the deck bitts on an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer are specifically designed with a low radar cross-section (RCS). These units feature a signature faceted profile to deflect radar returns, maintaining the ship's stealth characteristics. At this expansive 1/35 scale, this 10-piece set captures the unique geometry of the destroyer's primary mooring hardware with museum-grade precision.

Engineering Precision & Stealth Fidelity

High-Fidelity "Main Deck" Detail: In 1/35 scale, the technical nuances of modern naval architecture are fully realized. This set captures the "Standard" tall variant of the double bitt with exquisite fidelity, specifically modeled after the primary units found on the forecastle and amidships. Every structural line is rendered with architectural sharpness, reflecting the specialized "stealth" engineering required for the US Navy’s premier surface combatants.

• Mathematically Precise 1/35 Dimensions: Each unit measures 53.33mm (L) x 20.32mm (W) x 18.8mm (H), faithfully replicating the real-world 73.5" x 28" base and 26" height.
• Low Radar Cross-Section (RCS) Profile: Features the historically accurate faceted surfaces and "Standard Double Bitt with Lip" design used to reduce the ship's electronic signature.
• Three-Dimensional Realism: Captures the distinct industrial aesthetic of modern mooring hardware, creating realistic shadows and mechanical depth along the deck perimeter.
• Hollowed Engineering: Expertly designed to maintain structural integrity while optimizing material usage for a lightweight yet robust addition to your vessel.

Premium Material: High Detail Resin Grey

To ensure your destroyer’s mooring stations showcase the finest technical textures, this set is crafted from professional High Detail Resin Grey:

• Exceptional Feature Definition: The high-quality resin achieves stunning detail and a smooth finish, perfect for showcasing the precise faceted angles of the stealth profile.
• Professional Foundation: Provides a non-porous, ultra-smooth base optimized for high-quality primers and specialized naval palettes like Haze Gray.
• Superior Quality: From the workshops of distefan 3d print, ensuring clean surfaces and dimensional integrity for a professional-grade finish across all 10 units.

Key Features & Specifications

• Accurate 1/35 Scale: Specifically engineered for historically proportional integration with large-scale Arleigh Burke-class destroyer projects.
• Standard Deck Configuration: Includes the full count of 10 "tall" bitts required for the main deck mooring stations of the DDG-51.
• Unpainted Finish: Arrives unpainted, providing a blank canvas for your artistic vision. Customize with your preferred colors and weathering effects.
• The Definitive Upgrade: Replaces simplified or generic kit parts with a sophisticated, historically correct "Stealth" mooring suite.

A Canvas for Naval Artistry

Unpainted for Total Customization: Arriving in its raw High Detail Resin Grey finish, the Standard Double Bitt Set serves as the ultimate starting point for advanced weathering:

• The "Forward Deployed" Look: Apply a base of Haze Gray. The high-relief detail is ideal for pin-washes, allowing dark oils to define the faceted edges and the protective lip of the bitt.
• Realistic Weathering: The 1/35 scale is the ideal playground for detailing. Apply realistic "rope-scuffing" to the vertical posts and add subtle "rust-streaking" or salt-crusting near the base plates to achieve high levels of authenticity and realism.
