That is the only Mars class that I know of in any scale.
The Falls was my home in the late '70s so it was hard to watch the footage of her being sunk as a Rimpac target in July 2012.
working on this build.
AFS = Attack Food Ship.
Chasing the ultimate build.

Here is the USS Mars kit
Moderator if this is a violation i'll take it down.
seasick AFS = Attack Food Ship.
In case there are those who failed to see the [sarcasm] pennant . . .
A = Auxiliary (e.g. non-combatant) vessel
F = reFrigerated cargo (also known as "Reefer")
S = Stores e.g. expendable supplies that are not fuel or ammunition
All the AFS are gone now. The Lewis and Clark class in the auxiliary force have taken their place. No models of them yet.
Coming along nicely Mardis.

She is done. Post photos this weekend.
raider-hall - do you have any photos or data on the UH-46's that were operating from Mars or the Falls duriing Vietnam? What squadrons were that? I would like to build one of those helos in 1/72 someday. The Ship looks very nice, those railings are especially impressive. Thanks for sharing and have a nice day
