HISTORY:
KD Perkasa was a fast patrol craft operated by the Royal Malaysian Navy and belonged to a class of high-speed vessels based on the British Brave-class patrol boats. Built during the 1960s, these sleek craft were designed for exceptional speed and manoeuvrability, using powerful gas turbine engines to achieve speeds of more than 50 knots.
Armed with guns and torpedoes, Perkasa was designed for fast attack and coastal patrol duties. Its distinctive profile and impressive performance have since made it a popular subject among model boat enthusiasts.
This kit is suitable for radio control. Radio control components are not included but are available separately.
Paints and glue are required to complete this model kit. Not included. Available separately.
OPTIONAL EXTRAS:
