The Italeri 1/35 Vosper MTB 77 presents a close study of a WWII motor torpedo boat in scale form. Known for fast coastal missions, Vosper boats are represented here with parts that aim to capture hull lines and deck fittings for a faithful small-scale replica.
Vosper MTBs served in varied coastal theatres, carrying out patrols, escort duties and quick attack runs. The MTB 72 6 subseries, including the MTB 77, combined speed with compact armament, and this kit mirrors that mix through its molded components and layout.
Builders should expect careful trimming and alignment to achieve crisp joints and true-to-form features. The kit rewards patient construction and attention to detail, making it suitable for modellers who enjoy precision work and historical models.
A finished MTB 77 is a compact display piece that complements naval collections and diorama scenes. Its 1/35 scale allows for visible deck detail while remaining practical for shelf display or integrated naval groupings.
