Hobby Boss 83517 1/350 Ming Class Type 035 Submarine Overview

This 1/350 scale Hobby Boss representation of the PLA Navy Type 035 Ming Class submarine highlights the technical details and form of a Cold War era coastal attack boat. The kit reproduces the hull lines and superstructure so model builders can study and display a faithful small-scale example of this vessel type.

Cold War Era Naval Development

The Type 035 was developed as an evolutionary step from earlier designs, bringing incremental improvements in propulsion and hull layout. This kit mirrors those proportional updates, letting hobbyists examine the design progress and engineering context behind the class.

Assembly Approach and Display Appeal

Builders should expect a focused modelling session requiring careful gluing and painting to bring out the fine details. Once finished, the model makes a compact yet eye-catching addition to a naval shelf or diorama, showing off the Ming Class profile at 1/350 scale.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/350
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
The kit has fine details that are better handled by someone with basic modelling experience, though a careful beginner with patience can complete it.
Standard plastic model paints, brushes, and modelling glue are sufficient; fine brushes and a steady hand help with the small details.
A simple stand or shallow water diorama highlights the hull shape; a clear acrylic base helps protect the model while keeping the profile visible.
