Swedish Hemmema Styrbjörn

3D Model

Hemmema (Hämeenmaa) Styrbjörn was one of the newest and strongest ships to take part in the war between Sweden and Russia 1788-1790. Launched in the spring of 1790 alongside its sister ships Hjalmar and Starkotter, it was the largest archipelago fleet frigate in Sweden and the flagship of the Swedish line in the second battle of Svensksund (Ruotsinsalmi). This ship type is very similar to ocean-going frigates and the Russian Aleksandr class in armament, size and rigging, allthough this ship in particular had larger 36-pounders on the main deck.
