Royal Navy Submarines, what are my options?


Recommended Posts

As an absolute beginner when it comes to all things naval with the exception of a few 1/700 scale subs, I'd like for you guys to help me get going in a long term project of building some big(ish) subs of the Royal Navy.

As I've mentioned, I've built a couple of 1/700 subs but they are just to small, need to go bigger...something like 1/144 or 1/72. A quick search doesn't reveal much on British subs in these scales, do you know different?

I'd go as far to say that I wouldn't mind trying scratch building from plans to get what I want. I particularly like the diesel-electric types as the cold war stuff looks...'tubey'.

 

What are my options?

Isn't Trumpeter meant to be doing a 1/144th Astute?

Although that would be nice, not quiet diesel-electric but it is RN.

Get a Christmas wrapping paper inner tube, put a ping pong ball in each end, glue a cigarette box on top, spray black, job done.......:drunk:

:lalala:I wouldn't expect any other answer from a plane builder! Hold on, that's me:lipssealed: but as you can see by my avatar, I have a slight interest.
