Revell 1/350 Type VIID German Minelayer Submarine

One of the most important weapons of naval warfare was the mine. In order to lay these close to enemy shipping lanes, the German Navy used special submarines. The Type VII D, the lengthened variant of the Type VII C battle sub, had behind the conning tower a section with five silos each of which took 3 SMA anchored mines. The hull extended by 9.80 m is shown in the model with fine riveting and welds. All deck details, as well as engine, periscope and weapons are authentically reproduced.
