This listing is for a detailed unbranded naval multi-tube missile/rocket launcher as pictured — a shipboard, rotating pedestal mount carrying a 4x4 array of circular launch tubes. The model preserves distinct structural features visible on the reference: the rectangular launcher head with sixteen circular tube mouths in a 4x4 layout, a heavy armored housing with bolted/riveted access panels and maintenance hatches, visible elevation actuators and trunnions, side racks/brackets and an observation/antenna mast attached to the mount. The rotating base is modelled as a circular pedestal with bolt ring and mounting lugs.
Features and visible details
- 4x4 clustered circular launch tubes (sixteen openings) with internal tube lip detail.
- Sloped and faceted armored casing around the launcher head with distinct rectangular access plates secured by rivets/bolts.
- Elevation drive and hinge/ trunnion assemblies showing actuator housings and linkage points.
- Rotating circular pedestal base with bolt ring and mounting feet.
- Small ancillary components such as side brackets, ladder/rack elements, and a thin mast/antenna above the mount.
Intended use
This piece is intended as a miniature shipboard weapon suitable for historical wargaming tables, naval diorama scenes and display models. It was modeled to convey mechanical and structural detail at small hobby scales while remaining printable and assembly-friendly. The geometry emphasizes readable edges and maintenance access panels that hobbyists can paint and weather to match specific ship classes or theatre settings.
Contents and scale
- One master file prepared at HO scale (1:87) is supplied as the canonical release for this listing. This master is intended as the single production file you use as the basis for hobby prints and scaling.
- Conversion guidance: to print at a different linear scale, scale the master by the ratio target/87. For example, to convert to 1:48, multiply linear dimensions by 87/48 (≈1.81); to convert to 1:144, multiply by 87/144 (≈0.60). Preserve uniform scaling on all axes.
Printability notes for 3D-print-savvy users
- The mount includes several thin and fine details (antenna/mast, small brackets). Consider printing those as separate supports or splitting those parts if your workflow prefers multi-part printing.
- The broad surfaces around the launcher head and pedestal are oriented to print with standard supports. Depending on your chosen orientation, small overhangs under the tube cluster or the elevation housings may need local supports.
- The model was prepared with an emphasis on a crisp mechanical silhouette and should respond well to standard post-print cleanup and painting.
Visible provenance and limitations
This is an unbranded, generic naval launcher. No maker marks, hull adapters or ship-specific interface plates are included; the geometry is presented as a standalone mount and may require kitbashing or a custom adapter to attach to specific ship hulls or decks.
Notes for assembly and finishing
- The large launcher head and pedestal are suitable to be printed as one assembly at HO scale on most hobby printers, but splitting the mast or small brackets into separate prints can reduce fragile failures.
- The rivets and hatch plates are intentionally pronounced for painting and weathering to read at small scales.
If you require reference-based adaptations (different tube count, alternate pedestal), please contact us for a custom work request. This listing intentionally avoids tying the piece to a specific real-world navy or manufacturer — treat it as a generic, highly detailed shipboard multi-tube launcher for hobby use.
