    Free French Saphir Class Minelayers


    In this Saphir Class, the very lucky Free French Submarine FFS Rubis operating with the Royal Navy would sink some 15 German merchant & warships on no less than 22 war patrols surviving the war.

        Great model (although I couldn't read a word of the text and my translator didn't seem to work). Is there a place where I can download the mechanical drawings above in full resolution? This might be an interesting model for a future build. Khim
