Väinämöinen-class Finnish coastal defense ship


Ilmarinen coastal defense ship was the flag ship of the Finnish navy from 17th of April 1934 to 13th of September 1941
The ship sunk when it hit a naval mine. The wreck of the ship can be located 46km south from Utö.

Väinämöinen coastal defense ship was the sister ship of the Ilmarinen. It was in service from 1932 to 1947 when Soviet Union bought it for 265 Million Finnish Marks (44,569,800.51€ or 52,620.999$US in todays money) and changed its name to Vyborg. (Suom. Viipuri) Väinämöinen saw its end in 1966 when it was scrapped in the Saint Petersburg scrapyard.


Ilmarinen and Väinämöinen were similar so no point for me to make both

Interior is not going to be historically accurate, or even somewhat accurate to the real ship, and i've tried my best to make the outside as accurate to the real one as possible, but because the ship is so small it is hard to fit everything in.


105mm bofors is not historically accurate because i couldn't make them look not ugly, they should look like this.
