Small picture but shows hatchway and seal leading into a Virginia class

The ship upwards my SEAWOLF is the sistership of that marked A-20 on the bow on spanish AGOSTA starboard quarter. Both are now serving with Spanish Navy, and at my former shipping company they were supply ships known as AMAPOLA (now A-20 NEPTUNO) and AMATISTA (now MAR CARIBE).
My model is scratch build from the original plans. As it has twin screws and rudders and bow thruster, her manoeubrability is very high and I have very very nice times at the pond making her move sidewards, spinning in place and so on.

Very nice indeed reddevil. Perhaps you should do a photo shoot on it and post it under "Targets".

Abtao, a Peruvian Boat built in the US, now retired.

It's already done. Have a look on it on a thread called "supply ships"

[greenman407]

Yes, I just read it. Sorry about your lost Bridge but at least you got it back. One time I lost an entire boat. Radio Failure. I never found it! Heres the link:http://forum.sub-driver.com/showthre...s-3-5-Hot-Shot

Perils of the sea, my friend.

Astute class from Astern

[reddevil]

Whyy brits and russians had abandoned the slick lines in their submarines hulls? SEAWOLFS and VIRGINIAS have pure lined hulls. VANGUARDS, BOREIS and specially ASTUTES are completely different.
Any suggestion?

[greenman407]

Sometimes "Form" gives way to "Function".

Speaking of Virginia class

[greenman407]

The Peruvian Abtao. A submarine class built at Groton Conn. for the Peruvians
