Hey everyone. Hope this note finds you all well. I’ve been over seas for a bit, good to be stateside. My wife thought I should try something different so see bought me the Trupeter, Sea Wolf Attack Sub kit. I think the kit is missing a few parts. I can’t seem to find the masts and sails[:p]
My question is this. I want to built this kit with a bit more detail than comes in the box. Any idea if there are any etched parts for this thing?
As always, thank for the help.
Chris
beats me why not check out the Squadron catalogue for any PE sets for the SeaWolf
There’s really little added detail for a SSN or SSBNs hull. Most cleats, capstans etc. retract into the hull when not being used. Screw in stantions with a plastic coated wire running between them acts as railings while in port and the Ensign flys from a pole on the aft section of Sail and the Jack is on a “Jack Staff” up on the bow. All masts are usually stowed in the down position unless they are being serviced/tested. The Snorkle mast is usually raised high enough to exhaust the diesal. I have very seldom seen more than 3 or 4 masts up at the same time unless they are being serviced.
