U-Boat Type VIIC

Dear All,
And here is the next model. I found my love with submarines in the impressive 1:100 scale some time ago. In the meantime I have built the types II, VII and IX. Others (something bigger :) and from other navies) are on stock.
This model is a Fly model and coming along with the type IX in one kit. Accordding to Fly this is a type VII/C44 what is completely rubbish:confused:
There was a typeVII/C41 that was built until end of war. Several modifications have been done during war. The 8.8 gun was removed and the number of AA guns was increased. As planes were equipped with radar, U-boats were provided with a ventilation mast (snorkel) to go under the surface that can be seen on starboard near the turret.
The fit of the model is very good but many parts have to be built from wire (mainly railings,guns etc.). I hope you will like the grey wolf.
Best regards
Gerd
p.s. my first construction report in this forum will start very soon:)
