DECAL FOR 3 VERSIONS - COLOR INSTRUCTION SHEET - PHOTO-ETCHED CONTAINS 2 FIGURES The "Biber" was the best-known "pocket" submarine used during the end of the Second World War by the Kriegsmarine. The development of the Biber was extremely rapid. Design began in February 1944 and the first examples took to sea only 6 months later. Just 9 meters long, it had a range of 240 km. It could reach a maximum speed of 6.5 knots when surfacing and 5.3 knots when submerged. The Biber could be armed with two 530 mm torpedoes, mounted externally to the submarine, or with two mines. Its crew consisted of only one person. The use of the Biber, within the Kriegsmarine strategy, was very simple: to provide a concrete defense along the coasts to protect against a possible, and increasingly probable, Allied invasion. From 1944 until the end of World War II, the Kriegsmarine received and put into operation more than 300 Bibers.

MAS 563/568 WITH CREW Description CONTAINS 6 FIGURES - PHOTO-ETCHED - TRANSPARENT ACETATE - SCREWS, ROPES & ACCESSORIES Since the First World War, the Royal Italian Navy has paid great attention to the development of small, fast vessels, generally armed with torpedoes. Torpedo-armed motorboats, better known by the acronym MAS, were vessels of direct civilian origin. During the First World War, the results obtained were absolutely significant with the sinking, by Commander Luigi Rizzo, of the Austro-Hungarian Navy battleships Wien and Szent István. Although they were suited to closed, calm seas like the Adriatic, the Italian Navy continued to work to improve the performance of small but fast torpedo boats. The MAS 500s, equipped with the new, more powerful and reliable Isotta-Fraschini gasoline engines, developed during World War II, were used both as torpedo boats and as anti-submarine platforms for launching depth charges. They could reach a top speed of 45 knots and were armed with two 450 mm torpedoes. ITALERI 1:35 SCALE, We do not ship to the Canary Islands.
