Sunk by H.L. Hunley!
USS Housatonic spent her entire career down South blockading Charleston. She would have an eventful career, aiding in the capture of Princess Royal, which was dubbed 'the most important single cargo of contraband', capturing SS Georgiana, which carried over $1,000,000 worth of contraband, aiding in driving off CSS Chicora and CSS Palmetto State during their daring night attack on the blockade. Her crowning "achievement" was being the first, and only, ship sunk by a submarine during the war. She was sunk by H.L. Hunley on February 17, 1864, after the explosion she sank so fast the crew was only able to launch two lifeboats. However, most of her crew was able to survive by climbing into the rigging above the water as the ship hit bottom.
This ship is modeled in 1/600 scale and can be printed using any resin or FDM printer. Ship comes with and without base.
When printing in FDM, some details may be too small to print with a stock 0.4mm nozzle.
This model can be used to make the three sister ships of Housatonic
