WW1 D-class:

Great Stuff!

That D class would make for an interesting model in 1/24 or larger scale.

I like these older subjects & always wonder why there hasn't been more kits for this era.

Yes, I agree, would make a good kit.
I think it's because there's No publicity, Information, detailed-drawings or even knowledge of them. For those reasons also, it would make a Great model to do. :)

There's plenty of information out there for our early boats, you just have to nose about a bit.There was a nice E-class kit available until a few years ago, built by a modeller called Dave Diplock. It sold moderately well, but these earlier boats are never as sought after as WWII and post war boats, and as a result not so widely kitted.

Shame, as not only are they often more interesting visually, they also often have handling advantages over later boats.

No., there is Not. Compared to Later subs There is Not.
You really enjoy contradicting me don't you?

[Subculture]

Shipyard drawings, photos etc. are available for these boats, but you have to be prepared to dig around for them.

Sure, something like the Type VII u-boat has information to the point of overkill.

I don't enjoy contradicting anyone, however you seem to have a habit of making bold statements which you present as fact, and don't seem to like it when someone happens to differ.

[toppack]

I would suggest you use a more polite way of differing with someone. Not contradicting them, which is considered rude.
The Bold Fact remains that there is much less Info on older WW1 subs, than there is on newer subs, which is what I was saying, and there was No need to contradict that. Other than trying to do a 'Put-Down' to make you look more knowledgeable, which seems to be much too important to you.

If you want to take issue with what I'm saying go ahead, no skin off of my nose.
