A variation to Trumpeter's Dreadnought kit, featuring her as she looked when she took to again in 1918 after an overhaul.

I'm confused. I thought the previous version was after her refit? Is there one for Jutland?

The previous Trumpeter release of Dreadnought in 1/350 scale was of the 1915 version. Here's the link to that news item:

The release before that was 1907. I think Trumpeter is trying to get as much mileage as they can from the base molds.
