New midget sub coming

[daveg]

Hello All
I just got the 2012 Italeri catalogue and that are releasing a 1/35 British X craft midget sub. Photo-etched fret included. No date yet or pictures in the catalogue. listed at being 44.6 cm long. This may be a job for our superman Dave M. who may be able to come up with somthing in the future for this boat.

Bet a 2" SD can fit inside.

I just realized the measurement is in centimeters not inches.

The real X-craft had a length of 51.25*ft (15.62*m) and a beam of 5.75*ft (1.75*m).
At 1/35 scale, it's 44 cm (17 in) long, 4.8 cm (1.9 in)

The model is smaller than I hope it would be but I'm sure David's micro SD would definitely fit inside.

How about building one with a snort?

Anybody got any info if or when this boat is coming out?

Morning, Italeri have dropped it form their schedule, but the company Merit have picked it up .....
