1/128 HMS Vanguard Aft Mast Set

1/128 HMS Vanguard Aft Mast Set: Precision Naval Signaling & Radar Support

Complete the silhouette of the Royal Navy's last battleship with the meticulously crafted 1/128 HMS Vanguard Aft Mast Set. This set replicates the secondary lattice mast structure that played a crucial role in the ship’s post-war electronic and signaling capabilities. Designed with exceptional attention to detail, this replica captures the transition from traditional naval masting to the integrated sensor arrays of the modern era.

Engineering Excellence in 1/128 Scale

• Museum-Quality Realism: The aft mast of the HMS Vanguard was a vital platform for secondary radar units and signaling yardarms. At the massive 1/128 scale, this replica captures the complex lattice geometry and specialized equipment platforms with exquisite fidelity. Every structural cross-member and mounting bracket is rendered with stunning clarity, providing the mechanical depth required for a high-end naval replica.
• Premium Material: Crafted in High Detail Resin Grey, this mast set offers superior precision and a remarkably smooth finish. The resin material allows for a level of architectural sharpness—particularly in the thin yardarms and delicate lattice sections—that standard plastic parts cannot match. This ensures a professional, high-fidelity look for your ship’s aft superstructure.
• Hollowed for Lightweight Stability: Despite its height and structural complexity, the mast is expertly engineered to remain lightweight. This ensures the model maintains a stable center of gravity when mounted on the aft deckhouse, while preserving the structural integrity required to support resin radar lanterns and signaling rigging.
• Unpainted for Customization: The unpainted resin provides a blank canvas for your artistic vision. Customize the mast with historically accurate Royal Navy grey tones and apply subtle weathering, such as soot from the aft funnel or salt spray accumulation, to achieve a high level of authenticity and realism.
