        You mean this one?

        The U-99 was one of the best known and most dreaded German U-Boats of World War2. Under the command of Lieutenant Otto Kretschmer she patroled the shipping lanes of the North Atlantic searching for enemy vessels. The U-Boat's Atlantic prowling came to an abrupt end on 17 March 1941 when she was spotted and sunk by the British destroyer "Walker". Almost the altogether 43 merchant vessels totalling 263,682 gross register tons - Finely detailed hull and stern - Dire planes at front and stern - Two rudders and ship's screws - 20mm anti-aircraft guns - 3.5 inch gun - Detailed conning tower with periscopes, hatches and railing. Colors: 8 77 78 94

            Then there are plastic props in the kit. I think Raboesch make some that small, but I don't have the boat in front of me, (I'm on vacation) so can't tell. If anyone has the actual size of the prop, I can look it up.

                These are Raboesch that I got from Caswell when I was building my first revell Type VII.

                OOOps - I hosed up. The U-99 is 1/125 scale. My type VII is 1/72 scale. I messed up - sorry Sublover.
