Title: can we trust it?
Product review: The language of the package and headline could not get it more wrong. Yes, there is controversy over how to spell "Merrimac/Merrimack".BUT:this ship was never, ever called, by either side, "USS Virginia".Nor was she ever called "CSS Merrimack".She was initially USS Merrimac[k], later rechristened CSS Virginia (a common practice for captured ships, except in the Royal Navy in Napoleonic times) following her reconstruction from a wooden sail/steam frigate in US service to an armored ram in CS service.Point being: if the presenter and manufacturer cannot get the most basic details of the ship right, then how good can the model be?She was USS Merrimack, then CSS Virginia. Period.
