1/350 German Submarine U-96 (Revell)
This is the model of the German Submarine U-96 in 1/350 scale, a very
popular scale for submarines. This was a Type VIIC U-boat of the German
Navy during WWII. She was commissioned September 14, 1940 with Heinrich
Lehmann-Willenbrock in command. The U-96 was also known for its emblem,
a green laughing sawfish. She sunk on 30 March 1945 by US bombs in Wilhelmshaven.
In 1981 Wolfgang Petersen brought the story of the U-96 to the big screen
(Das Boot).
