With the recent release of the Moebius USS Skipjack kit in 1/72nd scale, I thought that there might be some interest in a photo-etch set of vents and strainers that I developed a while back.
These are based on the actual Electric Boat drawings for these parts. Each drawing was re-created in full detail using AutoCAD and then a few details were simplified (e.g. the several hundred small holes in the strainers) since the scale reduction to 1/72nd essentially made them merge. The parts are photo-etched using a 0.010" stainless steel.

Applying these details will greatly enhance the detail of this kit!
The price for a set of these detail parts is $25, which includes postage within the U.S. Please contact me for postage cost outside the U.S.
I can be reached via e-mail at jeffrey.larue@hp.com or the PM function on this forum.
-many thanks,
Jeff
