Hey Dave, of the choices,

Hey Dave, of the choices, I would go with the Sierra, as that is one cool boat.

But I still think the Surcouf would be baaaaaaad!

Dave,
GATO, GATO, GATO...The modern boats

Dave,
GATO, GATO, GATO...The modern boats all look like modern cars...from a hundred feet away, they all look the same. The GATO's won the war for the U.S. in terms of destruction of merchant shipping, and have character and great god looks.

A Dolphin would be neat,

A Dolphin would be neat, but would be too small in 1/96. It would require a completely new engineered WTC.

A good Gato in 1/96 would be cool. So many possible conversion kits!

A Walrus would be beautiful. It could use the existing Blueback WTC provided it had room inside for the SubTech mixer for the X-stern.

'Han' is too little known in the west, then perhaps for that reason it would be well to produce a kit of this SSN. However, why lose investment money in something that might be seen only as an purely academic pursuit.

Sierra class would not require a new engineered WTC.

The I-19 if selected should use a WTC like a Gato.

In the glaring absense of a Victor III, which would have been the ideal best choise along with a Foxtrot, I vote for....sigh....'Sierra'.

Perhaps success in marketing of a Sierra might flush out a 1/96 Victor III. Then a Walrus sub. Good transition from Blueback to an X-stern arrangement.

What is best for this hobby right now? 1 vote = Sierra!

Have to go with the "Gato". My next sub is going to be an American - been looking at the "Lafayette" by Engel, but an American fleet boat with all the trimmings would grab me by the wallet!!

Dear Dave,


I've built the Big sister to the Han , the Type 092 "Xia" and would be really excited to see a han built. Exotic/ mysteroius boat. Sorry but the Gato simply doesn't do it for me....
