Mantua Model Group have been producing period model boat kits since after the war and were the first company to innovate and use the cutting ability of laser beams to produce very accurate and high quality products. The most celebrated Model Ship in US history, the USS Constitution was launched in 1797. Her first assignment was in the West Indies, where she captured a number of smaller vessels around 1801. Her next assignment was in the Mediterranean, where she was successful in forcing the days of Algiers and Tunis to sign a treaty exempting American ships from tribute payments. In 1810, commanded by Isaac Hull (her most illustrious Captain), she joined the North Atlantic Squadron. On August 19, 1812, she encountered the Guerriere who was commanded by Captain James Dacres, who was a willing combatant. Whilst Guerriere opened fire at long range, Captain Hull closed the range, when at a distance of half a pistol shot; he gave the order to fire. Twenty-five minutes later, the dismantled Guerriere was wallowing in the high seas. She was so shattered that Hull ordered her to be blown up.
