With explosives in the front and a daring

World War II to ram enemy ships - a tactic that proved successful against
the British Navy at Crete and Malta. This finely detailed 1/35 scale plastic
kit of one such boat features photo-etched parts, a forward section that
opens to display the explosive charge, a standing driver figure, authentic
markings, a 36-page color reference booklet, and more. 7" long; 50+ parts,
