Happy new year and Bonne année.
I 've choosen to build the "commandant l'Herminier" because one of my friend had be above his conscription at the end of the eightees on this boat . And few days ago, he gave me a challenge to complete it in a year.
Having make the small frigate "Prairial" at the scale 1/100 in 2003, I've never build another warship till "Commandant l'herminier".
The
D'Estienne d'Orves-class, also known as the
A69 type avisos, mainly designed for coastal anti-submarine defence, but are also available for high sea escort missions ( in support missions with the submarine boomer).
I can give you some indications :displacement 1250 t, lenght 260 ft, beam 34 ft and draught 17 ft.
