Prinz Eugen was a heavy cruiser of the Admiral Hipper class and entered service with the Kriegsmarine in 1940. In May 1941 she sailed with the battleship Bismarck on Operation Rheinübung, and in February 1942 she took part in the Channel Dash from Brest back to Germany. She survived the war and was used by the US Navy in the atomic bomb tests at Bikini Atoll in 1946. Trumpeter’s 1:700 kit depicts the ship as she appeared in 1942 and consists of 253 parts.
