The two models below were donated to the museum by Mrs Kathryn Hodder. They were built by her late husband Terry (from Bristol) who was a prolific model builder for many years. His passion was building mainly aircraft but his main love was ships. He wished that these two models be donated to a museum and thanks to Tim Jenkins the RN Communications Branch Museum/Library was the lucky recipient. Both models are fully radio controlled with HMS Sheffield having a rotating radar, working Port and Starboard lights and various alarms. HMS Invincible plays a recording of the Royal Marine Band and also has various other sounds e.g. Action Stations alarm. The next task is to find a suitable venue to demonstrate the models.
