About the Vessel

RMS Titanic was a much-acclaimed British passenger liner. The famous ship was ordered on 17 September 1908. It was a giant ship, which was launched on 31 May 1911. However, its construction got completed on 2 April 1912. The passenger liner started its maiden voyage on 10 April 1912 from Southampton to the New York City.

The Titanic was the second ship of the three Olympic class ocean liners. It was built by Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast as well as operated by the White Star Line. The British ship sank in the North Atlantic Ocean in the fateful morning of 15 April 1912. The ocean liner was on her maiden voyage only when it collided with an iceberg. This Collison affected the hull plates of the ship. It caused the plates to buckle inwards, which led to open five of her 16 watertight sections to the ocean. Slowly and steadily, the ship was filled with water.

In the meantime, some of the passengers and crew members were evacuated with the help of lifeboats. During evacuation, an uneven number of men were left on the ship due to a protocol “women and children first” for boarding the lifeboats. Within two hours, the Cunard liner RMS Carpathia arrived at the place where the Giant Titanic sank and it brought aboard almost 705 survivors. There were 2,224 passengers and crew members aboard the Titanic and out of them, more than 1,500 people died. In modern history, this incidence is considered as one of the most deadly maritime disaster.

The construction of the Titanic Mantua Model Kit is divided into 5 parts in order to provide clients with the flexibility, whether they want to purchase a complete set or an individual kit. The replica of this ship can be constructed in two forms, static and RC. This Mantua model ship kit is built to a scale of 1:200 including a hull dimension of 1350mm long and 140mm wide. This kit comprises hull, front and rear decks.
