S-Boats "Schnellboot" gave the Allies fits. Capable of attaining speeds of 50mph and ranging up to 700 miles, the S-Boat was the easy-to-produce commerce raider Germany needed to strangle supplies to the UK. They sank over a hundred merchant ships, totaling hundreds of thousands of tons. Plus destroyers, minesweepers, and more. With a 40mm Bofors on board, the vessel became even more deadly. Both aircraft and unarmored ships could be blasted apart with this superior armament. Kit features photo-etched parts, upgraded mold, full decals, and over 600 highly detailed parts.
