Álvaro de Bazán Class Spanish Frigate 1:350

The Álvaro de Bazán class (F100) is a modern Spanish Navy frigate equipped with the advanced AEGIS combat system, making it one of the most capable air-defense frigates in Europe.

This 1:350 scale model captures the clean and stealth-oriented design of the F100 class, including its distinctive superstructure and sensor layout.

Designed for both collectors and enthusiasts, the model offers a balance between detail and printability.

The model ressembles the later ships of the class such as the Mendez Nunez and Cristobal Colon. That is clearly visible by the shape of the funel.

Printing recommendations

Use max. 0.16 mm layer height on a 0.4 mm nozzle or smaller.

Support is required for most superstructure parts.
Label and base plate can be printed without support.

Socket and base plate may be printed at a higher layer height, for example 0.24 mm.

Some parts may require 0.12mm layer hight max.

Hull parts may be too large for smaller printers.

Assembly

Assembly needs to be done with glue – think of it as a classic model kit 🙂

Please take a look at the pictures to see the correct positions of each part.
