Does anyone know if a 1:700 waterline model of a Fulton class sub tender has every been manufactured? I’d love to use it in a diorama of the U.S.S. Proteus outfitting the 3 I.J.N. aircraft carrier subs (I-400, 401, 14) before their trip to Hawaii by American crews. If you haven’t see the photos, check this out…

I really hope someone has some good news for me, I’m not a scratchbuilder…
You’re in luck. Hardly anybody ever asks on this board about a ship that is produced in a kit exactly as they request.
Loose Cannon produces a 1/700 resin kit of the Fulton AS-11 as in 1944.

Good luck,

It’s a nice kit too. I wish it was in 1/350 oh well.
The Fulton… AKA “USS Neversail” she spent the better part of 20 years welded to the State Pier in New London CT… But she does have a " Honorable Combat" history…
Awesome! Thanks for the help!
Any suggestions on where to find tips for building my first multimedia kit? I suppose I’ll probably end up buying another one of Loose Canon’s kits for practice so I don’t screw up the Fulton…
Thanks again!
