I don't know but I'd guess 1/320th. That's an old Revell mould and I don't think it's been available for awhile.

Or 1:384 (1 inch =3D 32 feet)

A google on "Monogram Bonhomme Richard" says it is 1/32 scale.

Based on being an old Revell mold, my guess would be somewhere between

1/110 and 1/132. I have their "1/96" scale HMS Beagle, and except for a few changes > Musicman59 wrote:

Isn't this an old Aurora mold? I don't recall Revell ever making a "Bon Homme Richard" and the only version of the carrier by that name was the old 1/500 Renwall one.

Boink! Forgot I had the Schiffer history of Aurora and sure enough, there it is:

443 Bon Homme Richard (1967-1973) 1/118 scale ($50-70 value for collectors)

Oops. Thanks Cookie.
