DF-5C (Qiji 23055)

About this set

This is KEEPPLEY's Dongfeng-5C from the Grand National Heavy Equipment series, set 23055, marked 8+ on the box with 863 pieces and a 2/5 difficulty rating, sitting in the vehicle category as a missile/rocket model. The build is dominated by green, silver and black, centered on a missile body paired with a launch silo and a round silo cover; the silo includes a cutaway interior display so you can see the missile sitting inside, and a rotating display base is included. For build order, get the silo walls and cutaway frame solid first, then lower the missile in, and finish with the cover and base. The cutaway sections need careful alignment, and while 2/5 is manageable for the 8+ crowd, 863 pieces is still a real part count, so younger builders may want a hand. It suits anyone drawn to strategic-weapon subjects who wants to show internal structure rather than a closed shell, and the rotating base lets you view the silo interior from different angles, with the green-and-silver contrast reading clearly on display.
