Hobby Boss 87010 PLA Navy Type 033 Submarine Scale Kit

The Type 033 traces its roots to the ROMEO-class layout and was refined with improvements such as quieter running characteristics and other operational updates. Production between 1962 and 1984 resulted in 84 boats that saw service in a variety of roles.

Is this kit suitable for a first submarine project?

While manageable, the kit benefits from some prior modelling practice due to small parts and the need for clean joins; beginners can still attempt it with patience and basic tools.

What scale is best for mixing with other fleet models?

At 1:700 this kit pairs well with other small-scale naval kits and is often used alongside ships and escort vessels in the same scale for cohesive fleet displays.

How do I protect the painted finish on a completed model?

Apply a clear varnish or matt coat to seal decals and paint, and handle the model minimally to avoid wear. Store in a dust-free display case where possible.
