News from Germany. H-P Models is proud to announce their latest upcoming release, the French Navy aircraft carrier Foch. This 1/700 scale kit will represent the Foch in her 1981 configuration. Retail cost will be $245.00.

The Foch (R 99) was the second Clemenceau class aircraft carrier. She was the second warship named in honor of Marshal Ferdinand Foch, after the heavy cruiser commissioned in 1932, and scuttled in Toulon on November 27, 1942.
After a 37-year career in the French Navy, she was replaced by the Charles de Gaulle. On November 15, 2000, after being decommissioned by the French Navy, the Foch was sold to the Brazilian Navy, and renamed São Paulo. As of 2007, she is still in service.
