This is a simplified miniature model of USS Dubuque (LPD-8), an Austin-class amphibious transport dock that served the U.S. Navy in expeditionary and transport roles.
The model captures the recognizable long hull, multi-level superstructure, mast structure, and flight deck layout while maintaining geometry optimized for home 3D printers.
