Not however the "largest" gun in the world.

The German V3 held that distinction at the time, I believe.

The V3 was never finished.

Finishd or not - it was tested - aka fired - which makes it a gun.

Here's a 1/72 scale one to go with your Type VII u-boat. Much cheaper and many less parts.

For $800 it'd better be capable of actually firing scale artillery rounds.

A local hobby shop had one of them in stock awhile back ,the box was freakin massive ,they had to stand it on end so it didn't take up too much room - the wife wouldn't let me have it ,something about not enough room

cool, the real gun was 155 foot long, so the model is 5 foot long?..........tempting.

I was so excited, until I found out the model wasn't of Dora the Explorer.
