SLC Pig with crew Description PHOTO ETCHED - 2 NEW FIGURES - COLOUR INSTRUCTION SHEET MINES NOT INCLUDED Based on the experiences and successes of the Italian Royal Navy in the First World War, in 1935 Teseo Tesei and Elios Toschi designed and progressively perfected the Slow Running Torpedo (SLC) which would be better known as the “Pig”. The torpedo was modified to allow it to be guided while submerged by two operators equipped with breathing apparatus and was intended to carry a high-potential explosive warhead under the keel of the moored ship. The torpedoes had a limited speed and were equipped with a guidance system. The battery that powered the electric motor guaranteed a range of 12-15 miles. The most famous feat of the Royal Navy raiders occurred on December 19, 1941. Transported by the submarine "Scirè", the SLCs sank the battleships HMS Valiant and HMS Queen Elisabeth of the British Royal Navy in the port of Alexandria, Egypt.

US NAVY PBR31MK.II PATROL BOAT RIVER “PIBBER” TAMIYA 1:35. GLUE AND PAINTS NOT INCLUDED. WE DO NOT SHIP TO THE CANARY ISLANDS. Pibber (also known as Patrol Boat, Riverine or PBR) is a type of post-war American river patrol boat. In the Mk. II, a single boat was 9.8 meters long and 3.5 meters wide. Propulsion was provided by two Detroit Diesel engines with a total power of 360 hp, allowing a maximum speed of 28-29 knots. Armaments consisted of 7.62 and 12.7 mm Browning machine guns and a single Mk. 18 cal. 40 mm. Pibber patrol boats from the beginning were designed to serve in the shallow waters of the rivers of Indochina and therefore had a low shot, as well as receiving propulsion that made it much easier for them to navigate the rivers. Units of this type served mainly during the Vietnam War in the period from March 1966 to the end of 1971 on the Mekong River. They performed patrol tasks, close support of their own troops, but also for the transportation of special forces. In the course of production, two types of boats of this type were created: the first (Mk. I) was the basic version, the second (Mk. II) was longer, wider than its predecessor and had slight changes in the hull structure. In total about 250 Pibber boats were built.
