A 1/1250 scale resin model of Drydock PD-50 sinking in 2018 by Coastlines Models CL-D06b.

At the end of October 2018, the Russian floating drydock PD-50 spang a leak with the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov inside it at the town of Roslyakovo near Murmansk. The dock settled on the bottom with a list to port and only the after starboard side left above water. The starboard 100ton crane landed on the carrier's flight deck and the dock damaged the carrier as it floated free.

A pack containing 1/1250 scale, assembled and painted models of the first two Borei-class submarines to enter service with the Russian navy, Yuri Dolgorukiy (modelled in service) and Alexander Nevsky (modelled on commissioning).

Arktika-class building is a waterline, 1/1250 scale model of a Russian nuclear-powered icebreaker under construction by Rhenania, Rhe187BZ. Originally, this model was named and numbered for Ural but as it has now entered service, Rhenania has fitted the hull transfers to suit Arktika or Sibir, the first two members of the class of three. Currently, Antics have both Arktika and Sibir in stock and if you express a preference, we will try to meet that. We have been advised that Rhenania does not intend to make more models as being built, so when they are gone we will not be allowed to re-order..
