1903 Russian Battleship Tsesarevich

Laid down in 1899, the Tsesarevich is a unique Russian battleship based on French pre-dreadnought technology on the period. Featuring a radically unconventional extreme tumblehome hull, Tsesarevich was based on the earlier French battleship Jaureguiberry. Tsesarevich would be copied by the Russians - in the form of the Borodino class that faced the Japanese in the Battle of Tsushima in 1905. As presented, this replica of Tsesarevich depicts the ship in its freshly completed 1903 configuration, with multiple small guns mounted in the fighting tops. She sports a haze gray livery for sea trials.
