        Its a Sierra. Youll notice the difference in the pictures between the Sierra and the previous posted Victor. The Sierra is a much larger submarine. It is 364 ft long compared to the Victors 303' to 335', depending on the model. Also the beam on the Sierra is 46 ft. compared to 33 ft for the Victor. And finally the Sierra displaces submerged 9100 tons as opposed to 7250 for the Victor. In the pictures this is readily evident as the sail is much broader and the bow is more bulbous. Just a little FYI.

                If anyone was going to get it I figured it would be Gantu. He even has a model of it no less!

                    ther was a company in germany who had made those kit´s of the losos the name was BAYMO. This company worked together with an russain company. Then after overing the kit for the market strange things happen (i do not what happen) so as far i know only a few kit´s was sold. One i do got, 2 build ones are af as i know exist. I do spend 2 years to get informations i do have now a good collecting.

                      That is one of the Forty-one for Freedom, Benjamin Franklin Class, possibly even USS Will Rogers.

                      "Will" Rogers

                        NOPE! Fairwater planes to high and rudder size wrong for a 640.
                        Me thinks 627 class.

                            These photos convince me that it is one of the Benjamin Franklin class boats. Note the four large holes in the forward part of the superstructure. I notice that they are not on all the boats of the class at all times during their lives. Perhaps Bill Rogers can tell us what they are for.
