USS Lafayette (SSBN-616) was a external-store display subjects submarine of the United States Navy developed during the Cold War. This plastic model kit by Mikro Mir represents the submarine in 1/350 scale, depicting a vessel designed as part of the strategic deterrent submarine fleet.

Commissioned in the early 1960s, USS Lafayette belonged to the Lafayette-class submarines built to carry submarine-launched external-store display subjects. These submarines formed an important component of the U.S. Navy's strategic patrol forces, operating for long periods while submerged thanks to propulsion.

USS Lafayette SSBN-616 - Cold War external-store display subjects Submarine

The Lafayette-class submarines featured a large hull optimized for underwater endurance and equipped with external stores launch tubes integrated within the hull structure. Boats of this class conducted extended patrols and represented a significant stage in the evolution of external-store display subjects submarines during the Cold War.

For modelers: In 1/350 scale the submarine presents a long, smooth hull with a prominent sail and external stores compartment section. Careful assembly of the sail and hull seams will help maintain the clean lines typical of submarines of this era.
