thanks for looking in guysBigGrin Yep seen them Jase BigGrin the Kubel and kettenkrad must be fun to build Confused


So Gray the Germans were to build two but only one was completed(1938 launched) well 90% and then she was used as a floating storage for the kriegsmarine Blink when Germany was losing the war she was then towed out and scuttled when the russians were nearBlink then refloated by the russians and used as target practiceCrying Then in 2006 polish deep sea surveyors (oil company)found the wreck Cool

Here is the Kit and the Infini model updates which are the = wood deck set, island and mast set and metal gun barrels
