CSS CHICORA / SAVANNAH ironclad ram
The 1/192 scale (10″ long less the torpedo spar) CSS
Chicora/Savannah kit is moderately easy model to construct, featuring
everything needed (pedestals and base not included) to build a dead on accurate
mode.
CSS Chicora, a Richmond
class ironclad ram, was built in Charleston, South Carolina.  Commissioned
in 1862 under the command of Confederate Navy Commander John Randolph Tucker,
Chicora was employed in the defense of Charleston for most of the remaining
civil war.
In her first major action,
Chicora and her sister ship, Palmetto State attacked the US Navy Blockading
Force off Charleston.  They disabled the gunboats Keystone State and
Mercedita, forcing the latter to briefly surrender, and engaged other Union
warships before returning safely to port.
On April 7, 1863, when US
Navy ironclads attacked Fort Sumter, and later in the year when other forts
were assaulted, Chicora operated in defense of the Confederate positions. 
She also furnished the initial crewmen for the submarine torpedo boat H.L.
Hunley.  Five of whom drowned when the submarine accidentally sank.
Chicora remained active
until February 18, 1865 when she was destroyed to prevent capture when
Charleston was evacuated.
