Revell 05078 Deutsches U-Boot German Submarine Type XXI with Interior Scale 1/144. The Type XXI U-boats were German ocean-going submarines whose serial production began in 1944. The Type XXI units were 76.7 m long, 6.6 m wide and had an underwater displacement of 1,820 tons. The maximum speed on the surface of the Type XXI U-boats was 15.6 knots, and the maximum speed underwater was 17.2 knots! The main armament of the Type XXI units consisted of six 533 mm torpedo tubes located in the bow. Secondary armament is 2 twin 20mm AA guns or 2 twin 30mm AA guns. The Type XXI U-boats were created in connection with the increasing losses suffered by German submarines in the Battle of the Atlantic, linked to the use of increasingly sophisticated methods by the Western Allies (Combating Submarines). The command of the Kriegsmarine in 1943 decided to create a completely new type of submarine, which turned out to be a technological breakthrough in the construction of this type of unit. First, a large-scale modular structure was used, which significantly reduced the production time of a single vessel. Furthermore, a new type of propulsion was used and a much better hydrodynamic shape of the hull and kiosk was taken care of, which allowed the phenomenal underwater speed of 17 knots for those times! The Type XXI ships also had a long range, a very large maximum depth, and were much quieter than previous German submarines. They also had rich - as at the end of the Second World War - electronic equipment. All these qualities made them an extremely dangerous weapon against Allied merchant shipping in the Atlantic. However, considerable production delays, the Western Allies' offensive bombing of Germany, and the loss of Atlantic ports in 1944 meant that the first Type XXI ships did not enter operational service until March 1945! However, after the end of the Second World War, the acquired copies were intensively studied by the Americans, British and Russians and, to a large extent, marked the development of submarines in these countries until the end of the 1950s!

Italeri 5623 MTM Barchino with crew SCALE 1:35. The Italian Royal Navy, building on the successes achieved during the First World War, developed several underwater and surface assault vehicles. The Motoscafo da Turismo Modificato (MTM) was designed to ensure a rapid approach to the target to be hit and not easily detectable by enemy forces. Once the approach was completed and the target was close, the pilot would lock the rudder to maintain the course and launch the barchino at high speed towards it. The pilot, positioned at the stern, would eject from the barchino at a safe distance, before the collision. The high-potential explosive charge positioned at the bow of the Barchino would detonate upon impact with the target. We can remember the sinking, by the assault group commanded by Luigi Faggioni, of the British Royal Navy heavy cruiser HMS York at Suda in March 1941, as the most successful action of the Italian Royal Navy in the use of the "Barchino".

USS Enterprise (CVN-65) was an American nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. The keel of this unit was laid in 1958, the launching took place in September 1960, and the commissioning into the US Navy took place in 1961. The overall length of the ship was 342 meters, the beam overall was 78.4 meters, and its total displacement was about 93,000 tons. The maximum speed was up to 33 knots. The onboard armament included, among others: three Sea Sparrow rocket launchers and three sets of 20 mm Vulcan Phalanx CIWS. Later, two launchers for the RIM-116 missile were also added. The aircraft carrier could carry up to 90 aircraft on board, but normally operated 60-70 aircraft and helicopters. USS Enterprise (CVN-65, commonly known as Big "E") was the first and only ship of its type. Very high construction costs, well above the original assumption, led to the cancellation of five planned units of this type. The USS Enterprise, however, was unique not only in this, but also because it was the first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in history to have up to eight nuclear reactors on board! The unit received very modern electronic equipment for its time in the form of SCANFAR radar. The USS Enterprise (CVN-65), shortly after its entry into service, took part in the maritime blockade of Cuba in 1962. Two years later, it operated in the Mediterranean. The unit also took an active part in the Vietnam War (1964 / 1965-1975), fighting there from the very beginning. In 1969, a tragic accident occurred on the aircraft carrier, the self-ignition of one of the missiles, killing 28 people and injuring 334. In 1986, the USS Enterprise became the first nuclear aircraft carrier to pass through the Suez Canal. Shortly thereafter, the carrier's aircraft bombed targets in Libya. The unit was decommissioned in 2012. We do not ship to the Canary Islands.
