German U-Boat Metal Works Model

German U-Boat Metal Works Model

German U-Boat Type XXI were a class of German diesel-electric submarines designed during the Second World War. They were the first submarines able to operate primarily submerged rather than spending most of their time as surface ships.

These amazingly detailed do-it-yourself models start out as a four inch square steel sheet. After you follow the detailed instructions, it turns into an attractive 3D model of a German U-Boat.

Model is approximately 7.5" long when completed. These models require patience and attention to detail, but are a fun project for anyone that loves WWII history and model building. Use the easy to follow instructions to pop out the pieces, bend the tabs, and connect them at the attachment points.

Ages 14+. Keep away from children, small pieces present a choking hazard.
